ie7-standard-p.js

[ice78991]

I have come across a reference to the file ie7-standard-p.js in the context of IE7 but I'm not sure what the significancce of this file is , or where to get it. Is it a patch to make css compliant on IE7 ?

That's one of Dean's tricks from

http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/

IE7 is a JavaScript library to make IE behave like a standards-compliant browser. It fixes many CSS issues and makes transparent PNG work correctly under IE5 and IE6.

He has usage instructions that use conditional comments to only load the javascript file in IE Windows browsers less than IE7.

Cheers,
Jeff

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

Thanks for the info. It seems you need a LOT of background info to be able to use css extensively

Not at all. You don't need to have anything to do with this ie7-standard-p.js thing at all (I never have until you posted and asked about it).

If you want to get to grips with CSS, then use Firefox and IE7 (which are standards compliant, modern browsers). As you get experienced you will be interested in supporting the archaic (non standards compliant) browsers (like IE6, IE5).

Jeff
