MSDN Blogs look.. Well.. Really bad in IE7

  • Article

No other word for it. It just looks really bad...

I hope they fix it soon, but until then, my apologies to all of you using the new IE7 beta for reading these blogs.

Edit: Asked the internal msdn blogs alias - apparently Community Server does not yet support IE7. :(

    It's probably more of a problem with the skin you have on your blog (which seems to be the default skin). Other skins look fine: http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/, http://blogs.msdn.com/larryosterman/.

    This page is rendering correctly in IE7 per the CSS design and what the CSS spec states. There are multiple min-width settings setting items in the center column to a minimum width of 650px. This means the content cannot be thinner than 650px so using the columns as a reference I came up with:

    Left column: 181px
    Center column: 650px
    Right column: 200px
    Plus the 1px gray border x2

    This adds up to a total 1033px.

    Obviously the total is over 1024px which is a web design flaw, no web page should ever have an overall min-width of > 796px. Next the issue is the 650px min-width is nested within a 20px padded div. Since padding is added to the width calculation (this is correct per CSS spec) this exaggerates the 650px min-width problem we are seeing.

    To correct the problem either remove or readjust the min-width settings to correct the current overflow.
