Today, I installed the new Internet Explorer 7 RC1 build and quickly realized how ugly the site looked in IE7. I had used the Benevolence theme with nightlys from the WordPress CVS for quite some time — and discovered it was completely not XHTML 1.0 Strict compliant. So, I’ve decided to move up to WordPress with K2. I’ll hopefully have some time tonight to put some of the content and touches back. Please bear with me — this will be under some construction for the next few days…
Found this over on Neowin.net:
Microsoft has quietly released the latest test version of Internet Explorer 7.
The RC1 build includes improvements in performance, stability, security, and application compatibility. With this build, Microsoft has also made enhancements to the fit and finish of the user interface, completed CSS platform changes, added language support and included an auto-uninstall feature in Setup, which automatically uninstalls prior betas of IE7 making installing the new build even easier.
IE7 RC1 is available in English today, and all localized versions of RC1 will be available in September including Arabic, Finnish, German, and Japanese as well as the French and Spanish versions which will be available for the first time.
Microsoft is expected to finalise Internet Explorer 7 at the same time as Windows Vista.
I’ve been running the Beta 3 at work for sometime…time to update it! RC1 holds the build number 7.0.5700.6CO.
