CSS Standards Compliance in Internet Explorer 7 - More Common Bugs Fixed in IE 7 (Page 3 of 4 ) - Bottom Margin bug on Hover – In IE, if you use a few anchor tags for a menu that have some vertical distance from each other by using the bottom margin, and on hover want them to change background color, the bug removes the margin of the anchor two places behind it.
- IE/Win Line-height bug – Line-height is incorrectly rendered if the line contains a replaced element.
- Double Float Margin Bug - One of the most common complaints CSS developers have with Internet Explorer is the doubling of margins of a floated element.
- Quirky Percentages in IE – IE chooses to calculate the percentage of a child item based on rendered page flow instead of taking the parent attribute and using that to calculate the percentage. Because it can't calculate the percent from an unknown, it "guesses."
- Duplicate indent – The bug causes in-line elements (images, text) adjacent to a floated div to appear to be indented from their expected location.
- Disappearing List-background – This bug is caused by placing a list with a background set within a floated div that has been relatively positioned, causing the background to display incorrectly.
- Fix width:auto – This bug resulted from prior versions of IE’s lack of support for fixed width positioning.
