Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-1758: ------------------------------------ Jacques, I don't agree with the solution in that link. First of all, our styles are not based on pixels. Secondly, our multi-column layouts use percentages - so the screen can be resized. The real problem is due to IE7's inability to perform simple math. Example: left column width set to 30%, right column width set to 70%. In IE7, 30 + 70 = 110 (or some other number greater than 100). To solve this problem, column widths have to be reduced to less than 100% total. But that results in an unacceptable gap between columns in other browsers - so a hack has to employed to reduce column widths only in IE7. That's why I suggested an IE-specific style sheet that could be cascaded from the main one. The maincss.css file could accommodate all non-IE browsers, and the IE spreadsheet contains the IE hacks and fixups. Using IE-specific HTML, it could be loaded conditionally. > Sandbox: Changes to Layout Needed for Internet Explorer 7 > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-1758 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1758 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ALL COMPONENTS > Affects Versions: SVN trunk > Reporter: Adrian Crum > Assignee: Adrian Crum > Priority: Minor > Fix For: SVN trunk > > Attachments: tab-bar-fix.patch > > > The latest Internet Explorer update breaks a lot of our existing layout.
