Accessing frames via the DOM in IE

OK, every other browser works fine with the method I have coded so far but for some reason Internet Explorer will not work. I have spent hours of time (more time than actually developing the feature!) on compatibility and am close to giving up! I have a forum and one of its neat features is the WYSIWYG editor. For that, I essentially ha...

Why do pages get slower as memory usage increases in Internet Explorer

I browse to a web page that has a javascript memory leak. If I refresh the page multiple times, it will eventually use up a significant amount of memory, and javascript on the page will slow down.

Does the IE url length limit apply to content after the "#"?

I have seen many places that IE limits urls to 2000 or so characters in length. I can't figure out, though, does this apply to the portion after the # as well? That part isn't sent to the server so it seems like it might be different. ...

extra vertical space in IE after div clear

I have created a simple grid of divs by left floating them and an empty div with a clear at the end of each row. This works fine in Firefox, but in IE I get extra vertical space between rows.

In short, I'm trying to make a weather scroller that will display the weather horizontally for about 50 cities.

Problem getting selected text when using a sprited button and selection.createRange() in Internet Explorer.

I'm working on implementing sprited buttons in Stackoverflow's beloved WMD markdown editor and I've run into an odd bug. On all versions of IE, the selected text is lost upon button clicks, so, say, highlighting a block of text and clicking the code button acts like you placed the cursor at the end of the selection and clicked the butto...

IE not autosizing width of absolutely positioned element

When I specify a "height" in the style for any element inside of this, IE makes the entire thing 100% width, rather than keeping it "autosized" for width. Other browsers display it fine, but not IE.
