Some days, computers are stupidly silly about things.

Today, I've coded in an extension to my taglist that displays it as a CSS driven hierarchical menu in Firefox. In Firefox [and, presumably, other standards-compliant browsers], this is working perfectly.

The CSS is written properly to completely hide this effect from IE, which should instead show the list as nested unordered lists.

Except it doesn't, on my copy of IE. And that is Very Odd, because a check of the compatibility details for the CSS filter I use shows that they hide styles from ALL versions of IE (on Windows), and it works perfectly well for my background images.

I'm working on the theory that my copy of IE is a little bit broken. IE users, please have a look and tell me if the tag list has turned into an unreadable mess of silliness.

Thanks!

Working fine in my IE copy (a 6.0 version). But my, that is some mighty pretty in Firefox! *bows to your mad codz0r skillz*

And also, this exercise reminded me that a) I hate IE with the fiery passion of a thousand suns, and b) I can now read 5-minute Firefly because I am spoiler-free since yesterday, whooo! *grins*

Mine's happy now, too. Turns out that 5.0 was doing things that 5.0 could never do before.

They're pretty simple CSS popup menus; Eric Meyer has a Quite Good™ tutorial on them here.
