Sky Theme

This is the demo site for the SKY Theme for Textpattern. This is where you can poke and prod it, see how it displays search results and handles comments, and all those other good things demos can do.

I’ve had a little time to sit infront of the current IE7 preview and while I can say I’m happy that nothing drastic is broken I’m still a bit dissappointed in the state of its CSS support.

• :before/:after not being supported
• min-width, max-width, and related height values not supported (yet?)
• the inherit and transparent unit value still missing
• still some oddities in its vertical line box

That said, I’ve got to keep telling myself that is only a preview and that they’re still working on things. Eric does a good job at telling me not to panic as well.

For more make sure you check out:

• the css-discuss wiki page on IE7 which is being updated frequently with test results and informative links
• The official IEBlog is putting out a ton of information—like this post covering what’s new for CSS in Beta 2 Preview?. Make sure to read the comments as lots of informative tidbits have been coming from MSFT staff responding to other commenters.

The monthly update to the ChunkySoup.net Zeitgeist as well as the report for PNH have been posted. No huge changes to report over the last few months, but I think one can officially call NN4 dead. Making up 0.15% of hits on ChunkySoup.net and 0.02% – just 27 hits total, same as the previous month – on PNH. Even Sony’s PSP has been recording a larger share.

So what’s going to change around here with the death of an old browser? Nada. Outside of possibly the end of breaking it out into a separate line item it won’t change anything.

And with that I’ll leave you with this interesting celebrity fact—brought to you in the form of the UA String of the month:

Britney Spears uses Firefox/1.5

Try And break em!
