So James I have to go off and sign on for yet ANOTHER forum (I already have
more than 800 emails a day to wade through, and 8 forums to check each day)
just to ask if my DHTML menus are going to break here??? 

Surely there's someone here who knows the answer.  How hard is it to just
answer the question instead of starting a debate about whether or not to
discuss it here or whether I should pack my bags and move to another forum.

Hi all

This would be better discussed on a place like the Sitepoint.com forums, 
as it's about general web development. Having a discussion about where 
you have sent screenshots is not for the list, it's for the person you 
sent the screenshots to.

Cheers

You actually can download the XP Service Pack 2 _Beta_
To test whats happening with the IE thats with it.
I haven't done it myself, since I only use one laptop to do my coding
on, and I dont wank to screw it up with a BETA...

But yeah.
Just goto ms.com
search for SP2
There will be a link or two with some help for you!

If anyone has, will or wants to do this, please keep us up to date on
what you notice has changed with the new IE...
Because I want to know if they have added any extended CSS Support...

Thanks!

Chris Stratford

Not many of these restrictions affect me, because I do most of my dynamic
things on the server side with ColdFusion.  But I read this with some alarm
- does it mean that the DHTML menus I spent so much time getting to work
will cease dropping down? 

[quote]
Q: What does Internet Explorer consider a pop-up window? 
Internet Explorer will attempt to block any window opened automatically
from: 

A script, with the exception of createPopup(). 
Modal and modeless dialogs. 
DHTML elements overlapping content on the page

Hi Neerav,

Thanks for the link :)  Very useful to know...  Just another good reason to build 
accessible interfaces...  I now know a few of my older sites will have problems due to 
SP2 but I wouldn't have realised if not for those checkpoints!

Cheers,

Mt.
