I was using this blog as an example of something the other day and noticed something was off in the sidebar when viewed in Internet Explorer. No surprise there, but when I dug a little deeper I discovered that it was only broken in IE7 – both IE6 and IE8 were okay (well, IE6 was a little off but nothing major).
Internet Explorer 6
Internet Explorer 7
Internet Explorer 8
The problem’s likely to have been there since last June which shows how little I use IE at home. Something to do with clearing floats or a calculating heights, but why is IE6 okay?

The IE6 issue (icons getting truncated at top and bottom) is caused by relying on min-height which isn’t supported.
Still no clue about the IE7 problem. The headings aren’t floated but it’s almost as if IE7 is behaving as if they were. Peculiar.
I’ve checked my IE6 remedial stylesheet for clues but found that all it contains is styles for parts of the sidebar that no longer exist. So, silver lining is that I can get rid of that altogether.
