IEBlog : Standards and CSS in IE

this is more encouraging than what i've been hearing about ie7 beta 1. sometimes you start to think since ie has been so static for so long that they must be living in some sort of software development vacume, but then you see PositionIsEverything and Quirksmode mentioned, along with the web developer names for all these delightful bugs (Peekaboo, Guillotine) and you get a glimmer of hope.

One thing though that could become very clear when ie7 comes out with these bugs fixed is that those who haven't been using conditional comments to fix IE problems are going to be sorry. That is, if you use some hacked selector (like * HTML) to serve something to IE, and IE doesn't fix the selector problem but they do fix the CSS rendering problem, pages are going to break.
