Has anyone had any trouble with the new IE7 and the Admin CP? My CP just takes forever to load now, was fine when I first upgraded to IE7. The left menu loads fine without the buttons but I have a white page on the right for a few minutes. Then it all appears as normal, buttons and all.

Wonder if it's this new "fishy" filter?

Still lots of issues with rendering vB pages when I have tested vB things on IE7.

I think its cause vbulletin is down and its trying to check and see if your up to date with the call backs... Cause i been using IE7 and had no problems until they did...

you could be right. It was fine for a while, only late last night and today had problems. Had IE7 for a few days before and it worked fine.

It's worth it, everything looks so much crisper. Nice layout, many more features..... Much better than Firefox.

i'm still a bit wary of it being in beta..... albeit beta 2.

yep ;) Actually I won't install anything that's still in Beta, if it has to do with my computer. Since I sold my laptop at the beginning of the year, I have no back-up computer now.

Well... I do have my son's computer, but that thing is as old as Methulselah and just as slow.

I'm too risky me, once a site starts using something I take the plunge and 99.8% of the time it goes well.

The ACP stalls when vb.com is down. Click on a link on the left side to force it to a page at your site instead of waiting.

I use 3.6 beta 3 all day and night in dev, it works fine IMO. But, I agree, no need to run it in production yet.

Let me expound... I was talking about about installing IE7 on my computer. Not while it's in beta, as I have no backup.

But as for vB 3.6... I'll probably be installing it on my live site this Friday. I know that some of my hacks aren't compatible. I'm hoping that the photo gallery is........................


noppid?

His links directory goes mental with IE7 b2

I've also mentioned it on vbadvanced.com if your about just so you know....

IE 7 sucks. I doubt anyone is going the start fixing anything for it yet. I tried it and got rid of it.

I had it installed on the corp network, just to see the compatibility with new/old scripts...
I uninstall it 2min after. :)
Half of the CSS was no good good for it... and I write CSS compliant with FireFox, Opera and IE.

I've been doing FF and IE6. I'm going to bite the bullet and try my new stuff on opera and Safari. I got javascript to test that works in IE and FF so far. Of course it manipulates CSS.

IE7 made my computer flakey, I uninstalled it too quickly to notice rendering issues.

someone posted here yesterday that he/she couldn't see certain areas or graphics or something on a website. Then posted they he/she was viewing it with Opera, and pulled up IE and saw everything fine.

IE7 still has major CSS flaws. FireFox for me.
