Overview
IE7 loads and parses all style sheets
into a form that Explorer can understand. You can then use most
CSS2/CSS3
selectors without having to resort to CSS hacks.
The lightweight script is a single-line inclusion in your
HTML/XML document.
No alteration of your original markup is necessary.
Neither do you have to alter your CSS.
IE7 provides Microsoft Internet Explorer with support
for W3C standard CSS
and HTML:
- supports the following CSS selectors:
- namespace|selector
- parent > child
- adjacent + sibling
- adjacent ~ sibling
- [attr], [attr="value"], [attr~="value"] etc
- .multiple.classes (fixes bug)
- :hover, :active, :focus (for all elements)
- :first-child, :last-child, only-child, nth-child, nth-last-child
- :check, :disabled, :enabled
- :root, :empty, :contains(), :not()
- :before/:after/content:
- :lang()
