hello
I am currently testing a new design that I have developed for Wordpress. I hav tested it in Safari/Firefox on a Mac and in Firefox in Windows. Everyting seems to be OK
However IE7 ( no really?) is causes A LOT of errors and I don't where they come from.
Could you guys gie a look and sugest some solutions please?

I don't have IE7 but have dealt with its issues for awhile. Could you describe what problems you're having or perhaps link up some screenshots?

If it were me, I would start by trying to eliminate the errors in the html code that I could find. Many times, this will help get the design cross browser compatible..

The, I would probabally do this CSS the same... trying not to use proprietary code (made for one browser only)

That is just my 2 cents though.. sometimes correcting code isn't always possible with some hosts.. but it is a start to getting it working in all browsers.

It doesn't have that many problems on IE 6 luckily...I'd go with validating your code, and the last resource would be just telling people the site is better on Firefox or other browsers...everyone knows IE7 just sucks so I don't think people will get offended :P

That looks like the old default wordpress theme to me. Did you disable your theme?
