CSS Support Could Be IE7's Weakest Link

Posted by Zonk on from the who-uses-that-css-stuff-anyway? dept.

Ritalin16 writes "Many web developers may be disappointed to hear that Microsoft decided to hold off on full CSS2 support with IE 7.0. As said by Microsoft-Watch: 'One partner said that Microsoft considers CSS2 to be a flawed standard and that the company is waiting for a later point release, such as CSS2.1 or CSS3, before throwing its complete support behind it.'" More commentary available from ZDNet. Generally related to the IE 7 Acid Test thrown down by Opera.

    Slashdot actually adheres quite reasonably to HTML 3.2. You might not *like* that web standard, but it is one.
