IE7 - JS library to make Microsoft IE behave like a standards-compliant browser

About

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

Usage

IE7.js

Upgrade MSIE5.5-6 to be compatible with MSIE7.

IE8.js

Upgrade MSIE5.5-7 to be compatible with MSIE8.
You do not need to include IE7.js if you are using IE8.js

IE9.js

Upgrade MSIE5.5-8 to be compatible with modern browsers.
You do not need to include IE7/IE8.js if you are using IE9.js

PNG

The script only fixes images named: *-trans.png
If you want the fix to apply to all PNG images then set a global variable as follows:
var IE7_PNG_SUFFIX = ".png";
You must set this variable before including the IE7.js script. Alternatively, you can set the variable inside the IE7.js script element:
 src="IE8.js">IE7_PNG_SUFFIX=".png";
The suffix will ignore query string parameters. For more fine-grained control you can also set IE7_PNG_SUFFIX to a RegExp object. If you want to use an alternative PNG solution then set the suffix to something that cannot possibly match:
var IE7_PNG_SUFFIX = ":";
By default, the PNG will be stretched (this simulates tiling). If you want to turn this off then set the no-repeat property as follows:
div.example {
  background: url(my-trans.png) no-repeat;
}
Unfortunately, the transparent background image cannot be tiled (repeated) using background-repeat. Nor can it be positioned using background-position.

  1. Click the Start Orb, then select Control Panel.
  2. Click on Network and Sharing Center.
  3. Click on Local Area Connection under 'Active Networks.'

    1. 208.67.222.123 in the Preferred DNS server and
    2. 208.67.220.123 in Alternate DNS server fields.
  7. Click OK button, then the Close button, then Close again. Finally, close the Network and Sharing Center window.
