    Can I ask a seemingly simple (to me anyway) question of you?

    I'm terribly confused about something here.  Why can't MS simply check IE7 against the
    couple of hundred or so pages of

    Index of /Style/CSS/Test/CSS2.1/current

    located at
    http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/CSS2.1/current/

    and tell us what the % of the pages render correctly?  Would this be "biased" against IE7?
    I really don't care about how well or poorly Opera, FF, etc. perform on these, I'm only concerned with IE7.

    regards

    Of course, this still makes me wonder why display:table and display:table-cell aren't supported in IE. I love those guys!

    Ive come to the realization that no more bug fixes are going into IE7 before the final ship. I hate this so, but alas that is how I see it at the moment.

    Therefore, I want to ask for one "tweak", and one "tweak" only before shipping.

    Please, for the love of (insert diety of choice), move the stop/refresh icons to the left of the address bar.

    I can handle all the broken CSS, lack of JavaScript and DOM support, if the browser is at least useable.

    At the moment, I would rather use IE6 than IE7 because of this.

    Please.

    The refresh icon is missing from my computer.  It used to be with the back/forward and stop icons (buttons to me).  I'm not sure how many days ago it was still there.  How do I get it back in place.
