(by the way I use v7.0.5700.6 release and everything looks fine). About 8 months ago my IE users on my blogs were about 94% usage .. then, about 5 months ago slipped down to about 75% .. Nowadays .. it's back up to 85%-90% on all my blogs - except one (1800HART which I usually link when I'm commenting around other friendly blogger's and those in it for the money too somewhat). I believe the rest of the world and general surfing public are finally realizing that Firefox 'aint so hot anymore and people aren't believing that hype anymore. IEv7 is great and that's my main browser .. but I also use Firefox (mostly for the Aardvark plugin) for those sites that are not I.E friendly .. I even load up Flock and Opera at times. Of course, HART's mind works in mysterious ways .. I'm like that. I get along with all browsers ~ :D That’s an interesting statistic about IE … 2/3′s down to half… (by the way I use v7.0.5700.6 release and everything looks fine).

IE is brain-dead in some respects. If it were me, I would try the author's suggestions if they allow easy customizations. The long-term savings would be worth the time spent now if they work. And over time IE 6 will go away as IE 7 comes on board. Six months ago 2/3 of my visitors used IE. That percentage is down to just over half now. It's slowly losing ground.

It seems that the issue may be the fact that this particular template uses a style.php file instead of a style.css file to allow all of the easy customization. Apparently IE doesn't like that so much. I may end up having to manually code up the style.css file with all my preferences to make it work right. The author has some ideas for me to check out first. But they may end up being even more time consuming than just biting the bullet and fixing it manually. Yeah, Rick.

I use Firefox, too. When I first started using style sheets on my software site, I only looked at it in Firefox. I got it just the way I wanted it, then asked my wife, who uses IE, to look. She did and told me it was broken. It was, badly. So back to the drawing board. Unfortunately, over half the people who come to my sites use IE, so now I design in IE, and verify in Firefox.
