WPOS7 Screenshot
So I have been plugging away at creating my OS7 theme.. I previously stated that IE8 sucked completely and I have to take that back. It doesn’t suck completely.. infact, it sucks a lot less than I realized..
I found that I was using IE8 in “quirks mode” and of course it behaved quirky. My main question is; What the hell is the point of quirks mode?! “Here have our browser in a mode that is completely broken.” I just don’t get it.. I guess quirks mode is basically IE6 as they seem to render similarly.. (I have IE6 on my laptop still for testing purposes..) If that’s the case it couldn’t be better named..
Apparently since I had a misspelling (or something) in my doctype it defaulted to quirksmode.. Once I found that I was in the wrong mode, found out why and fixed it, I started to test my new UI in IE7 and IE8.. It actually works!! Ever so minor bug in IE7, but its hardly worth mentioning.. IE8 works fine, but a little slow. er.. in fact, a lot slow.. IE8 ain’t zippy at all.. continue reading…

Well per my post on the 18th I have gotten wordpress mu up and running on my forum server. Currently the urls used to access that system are;
