Yeah, stop trying.



1. IE 7 is outdated. Since IE 8 exists, you don't need to support it.

2. IE isn't a real browser. I'm dead serious. When IE 9 comes out and actually supports international standards, then it will be worth supporting.



Just stop trying. No one gives a flying frick about IE 7.

You can improve your eyesight by simply learning, naturally and practicing the correct way to see for a few small minutes a day.

You can check this method based on a scientific researches :



http://improvevision.toptips.org



if glasses are worn continuously over time the poor vision will generally become worse. Essentially what glasses do is lock the eyes into their refractive state and in order to see through your lenses you have to maintain the poor vision that the lenses are designed to correct.

"Restore my vision” program you'll be taken by the hand, it shows you how to improve your vision naturally, permanent and complete solution.

Even the American Optometric Association has been forced to admit these things!

I'm sure that you will not regret your decision

Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. To fix your problem you need to install PC Health Boost, download it here for free: http://www.pchealthcleaner.net



It's very light and it's the only antivirus/cleaner with a 99.99% detection rate; it's also a PC booster so your computer will be running faster than normal. Install it, hit run and problem solved. It shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes.

Your problem is the widths you are using. You have content set at 70%, it contains an header image that is 662 px wide. Your house images are 640 px wide that they are not being adjusted in size under IE7. What happens if someone has bad sight and has their monitor set at 800 px wide. 70% of 800 is only 560px and this does not account for the overhead required by the browser. So the header image i s not going to be displayed correctly, much less the others.



My recommendation, change from percentages for content width to a fixed width, I would use about 960 px to nicely display with monitor set to 1024px wide. This is better than 70% of 1024px which is only 717px. Resize the house images to about 400 pixels wide - experiment. They will look better and load faster also. The sizing of large images with HTML is not a good thing to do.



Also, your content background image is over 300 Kb! Take a narrow slice of it vertically, set it as a background image as you have now. It will repeat by default (if you remove the background-position) or you can set it as background-repeat: repeat-x; Okay, get rid of the background-position and change that to provide a color close to your background-image, for those who have images turned off. Maybe --- background: #ab0505;



Tables are intended to display data, not images. There are other ways of doing the same thing without the use of tables but that is another question, another answer.

You could use conditional comments http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537512(VS.85).aspx to butcher it for IE7. (Making the same code work in IE7, IE8 and real browsers might take forever, but if you want to try, see http://www.positioniseverything.net/ )

People are NOT STUCK with any early version of IE. They just refuse to update to latest version. Anyone still using an outdated Windows OS that does not allow use of an updated version of IE deserves what they see when surfing the Internet. I wish browser developers would quit making browsers which are backward compatible and only go with the latest HTML/CSS. Sure, it would break millions of web sites, but it would get rid of all the garbage sites and force people to code to the latest standards or risk having their web sites un-viewable by modern browsers.



IE has problems in ALL versions. That's why Micro$oft provides Conditional Statements:

IE Exposed: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer.html



IE 7: http://www.quirksmode.org/bugreports/archives/explorer_7/index.html



HTML errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.accessbuildersllc.com%2Fhomes.html



Check the CSS at the w3c.org's CSS Validator, too.
