IE7.js version 2.0 (beta)
“IE7 is a JavaScript library to make MSIE behave like a standards-compliant browser. It fixes many CSS issues and makes transparent PNG work correctly under IE5 and IE6.”
it is updated in IE7 library. 
IE7 was in alpha for a long time. The last version was very stable but I always intended to issue a serious update. The release of the real IE7 browser threw me off course a little and then I got bogged down with base2.
Important changes to the script which I’ll now outline.
- The IE7 project is now hosted on googlecode (I got fed up with SourceForge).
- IE7 is no longer modular. Instead I’ve merged the scripts into two: IE7.js and IE8.js
- IE7.js includes only fixes that are included in the real MSIE7 browser.
- All other enhancements are moved to IE8.js.
- IE7 is now much smaller (11KB gzipped).
- IE7 is now much faster (it uses the selector engine from base2.DOM)
- There are no dependencies on other files (except blank.gif)
- You can hotlink IE7/IE8.js directly from Google’s servers (usage instructions below)
Some fixes are removed completely:
- the
:rootselector - support for XML files
- support for CSS namespaces
- the fix for base64 encoded images
Usage
You can link directly to the files on google: http://ie7-js.googlecode.com/svn/version/
