A chart displaying IE compatibility to CSS from version 5 to 8

With each new release of Windows Internet Explorer, support for the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) standard has steadily improved. Internet Explorer 6 was the first fully CSS Level 1-compliant version of Internet Explorer. Windows Internet Explorer 8 is planned to be a fully CSS Level 2.1-compliant browser, and will support some features of CSS 3. If the browsers your Web site is targeting include earlier versions of Internet Explorer, however, you want to know the level of CSS compliance for those as well. This article provides an at-a-glance look at CSS compliance across recent versions of Internet Explorer, including support in Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1 for Developers and planned support in the final version of Internet Explorer 8.

I'm a new contributor to the SitePoint blogs and will mostly be covering front-end development and Semantic Web technologies. I'm looking forward to participating in the SitePoint community! Sometimes it's the simplest things that go unnoticed for the longest time. Case in point, while catching up on some WSG reading tonight, I saw a link to Paul Hammond's Conditional classnames for Internet Explorer.

This is a selection of single-character fonts. A single-character font is, literally, a font file that only contains glyphs for a single character. The single character in these font files is the ampersand. Each ampersand on this page is real text, not an image. Just like any text, you can select it, copy it, paste it, and apply CSS to it. The ampersands scale as you zoom the page, and they work in virtually every browser - even ancient versions of Internet Explorer.
