 <title>Goddamn Internet Explorer&#039;s idiot CSS reasoning</title>
 <link>http://www.goobertech.net/node/1739</link>
 <description>I will cheer loudly the day Microsoft finally goes away bringing the god-awful Internet Explorer down with it. It&#039;s been a sinking ship for the last few years anyway. &lt;b&gt;Please people -- for the love of sanity -- abandon explorer and start using &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/&quot;&gt;Firefox&lt;/a&gt; today.&lt;/b&gt; You won&#039;t even notice the difference (other than you&#039;ll have less ad/pop-up/virus/etc issues and things on the net will look better and you&#039;ll surf faster and more efficiently.)
&lt;!--break--&gt;
So I noticed recently that all of the images that were floated with css (almost all the blog images) weren&#039;t showing up in IE. Great. Now what is it. To make a long story short -- I discovered that the float was the issue with the fact that I have all entries wrapped with a &quot;content&quot; class. I had that class with a css property of &lt;em&gt;position: relative;&lt;/em&gt;. Probably residual from an old theme. Firefox and every other browsers that follows standards just ignored this and did things correctly. IE choked and displayed white space instead.

So anyway -- it&#039;s fixed now.</description>
