There are a number of sites/forums that deal with CSS issues as applicable to IE6/7.

However in IE7, it shifts to the left and CSS formatting gets disturbed. Any resources where solutions to such problems can be found? </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/non-funtionality-of-the-command-suggested-to-diable-popup-blocking-in-chrome#post-6567 Sat, 19 Sep 2009 01:05:06 +0000 keshavanand.kaushik 6567@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>I am aware of the latest version of Chrome but throw some light on the command,provided as a solution to many by some users particularly with a silent nod of the Google Team to manage popups. I was asked to add some text to the end of it like this---(c:\Documents and Settings\administrator\local settings\applicationdata\Google\chrome\application\chrome.exe"-disable-popup-blocking).Now I want to know whether just by adding some text to the URL it will start behaving the way we want it to? I tried it several times only to get"the shortcut is not valid.check the path or file name is correct".SECONDLY I was reading a WORD DOCUMENT to end of which a HYPERLINK .pdf was given to view.I commanded "open",it said"the specified file can not be opened".this is not a problem on IE.Could you tell why this occurred? </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/css-problem-in-ie-6#post-6020 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 03:18:44 +0000 dhana 6020@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>We cant write code for each and every browser and checking in it.

Will try out some of your suggestions. However, I see at most of the cyber cafes in India still use and they are quite reluctant to upgrade. IE 6 is basically being used by people who are not aware of the advantages of the new browsers and who don't really bother as it still does the work for them. I agree with you views regarding IE6 and hope that is removed completed from every single computer. But unfortunately it will take some time </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/css-problem-in-ie-6#post-5991 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 11:54:07 +0000 Sparx 5991@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>Then encourage them to switch to alternative browsers. Push a mobile version after using scripting to identify the browser version being used. That way your content will be viewed, but users also get a subtle reminder to upgrade from IE6.</p> <p>IE6, IE7 and now IE8 is here. Most definitely time to upgrade, security and feature wise. If they're part of an enterprise, then the sysadmins/network admins must be hauled upside down and flogged for allowing IE6's presence to remain. I feel strongly about this. </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/css-problem-in-ie-6#post-5987 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 07:29:20 +0000 techlee 5987@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>Thanks Sparx. But the problem is that still the number of visitors ie6 is too high and the webpage is showing as distorted to them. </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/css-problem-in-ie-6#post-5979 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 17:39:54 +0000 Sparx 5979@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>@techlee: Please, please, please....do NOT code specially for IE6.
