IE prompt about unsaved form data

I'm having an unexpected "annoying" popup in IE7 (and possibly other versions). As expected IE prompts you about unsaved form data when closing the window which is fine. But I have a form inside a div and now when I toggle the display CSS style between none and block, IE thinks I'm closing the form with unsaved data and shows the warning...

IE support for DOM importNode

I've been looking arround the web, and I'm fairly sure I already know the answer ("no"), but I'd like to check: Does IE support importNode() yet? Is there a better alternative than walking the DOM and creating nodes? (I've seen the clasic article by Anthony Holdener but its more than a year old now, and I'm hoping that either IE has evo...

Mysterious problem with CSS and Internet Explorer 7

I think the myth that IE is a nightmare for web designers its true. IE7 is adding me some mysterious padding or margin on the left and right side of my div#image (the gray div) and the paragraph in the div#content is suffering from the CSS propieties of the h2 tag. Thanks in advance! edit: I even tried Eric Meyer's CSS Reset but it didn...

What's causing duplicate character entry in my web form textboxes in IE?

We have a fairly robust ASP.NET app using quite a bit of AJAX, jQuery & CSS. After opening a new instance of the browser using CTRL+N, when entering data into textboxes, if users want to enter "foobar" it dups every key they hit. So they get "ffoooobbaarr" instead. We're not able to isolate this to a consistent debugging environment th...

What is this IE CSS bug called? (Double vertical padding)

(Note, this is not the double-margin bug. I'm calling this the double-vertical-padding bug for now unless someone else has a more clever/documented name for this?) Just when I thought I'd seen all the quirky IE CSS bugs, I've produced a simple test case that continues to confuse me. The page below looks and works great in FF, Opera, et ...
