As far as I know, it’s not possible in IE because it uses the OS component. Here is a link where the control is replaced, but I don’t know if thats what you want to do. Edit: The link is broken I’m dumping the content <select> Something New, Part 1 By Aaron Gustafson So you’ve … Read more
This may work for you. It works on IE6 and Firefox 2.0.0.17 for me. Give it a shot. I made the footer’s height very tall, just for effect. You would obviously change it to what you need. I hope this works for you. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd”> <html> <head> <title>Liquid Footer</title> <style … Read more
You probably have an <input name=”submit” /> somewhere in your form, which overwrites the function “submit” of the form in IE. Edit: I have tested in some other browsers. The latest versions of all major browsers seem to be affected by this issue. IE – all versions Firefox 4+ Chrome at least since version 12 … Read more
First, disable the currently installed version of Java. To do this, go to Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Default Java for Browsers and uncheck Microsoft Internet Explorer. Next, enable the version of Java you want to use instead. To do this, go to (for example) C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_15\bin (where jre1.5.0_15 is the version of … Read more

Version 3 introduces ajax support, meaning that any html that gets … Read more
It’s a non-standard property on an HTML element which is only supported by IE7 and lower ( IE8 compatability mode too ), which if triggered, causes the element to be rendered in a certain way ( which can be unexpected, random, can be a godsend or can be hell ). Classic example is giving layout … Read more
It’s all about putting in enough effort so that your site degrades gracefully as you go to older and older browsers (or for disabled users). Unfortunately, there are a lot of IE6 and IE7 users out there who more or less can’t switch, so it seems unlikely that your site will force many to do … Read more
To modify an image proportionally, simply only alter one of the width/height css properties, leave the other set to auto. image.style.width=”50%” image.style.height=”auto” This will ensure that its aspect ratio remains the same. Bear in mind that browsers tend to suck at resizing images nicely – you’ll probably find that your resized image looks horrible.
Revised answer, 5 September 2010 To account for trailing line breaks is tricky in IE, and I haven’t seen any solution that does this. It is possible, however.

I like this Javascript solution writen by David Cilley some time ago. It gets out of the way of compliant browsers and can be used with any back-end you want. It does still require a blank gif image though. Add these functions to your HTML Header or other existing .js include: <script type=”text/javascript”> function fixPngs(){ … Read more
