Hi folks. Sorry to request this, but could you tell me if my layout breaks in IE 7 / Opera 9?
LIVE TEST PAGE! (http://magazinearchives.tg-16.com/turbo_play_0002.htm)
I'm not worried about Opera 9, but I am pretty certain that IE 7 will break my layout since I relied on some CSS hacks (I modified the 3-column "Piefecta Jello Mold" Design, which has since been updated (New Jello Mold (http://www.positioniseverything.net/articles/pie-maker/pagemaker_2_9_home.html), I used an older version that might no longer be available).
Note: For IE 7, I'll eventually use conditional commments in lieu of the hacks, but I've yet to figure that out. Thankfully, MS has yet to unleash IE 7 to the masses :)
I fear the worst. PM me for an email address to send screenshots to, should you be so inclined. As always, thank you in advance.
UPDATE:
A. Here is my page in Firefox (both Mac/Win are essentially the same, the screenshot is from FF/mac 1.5.04):

B. Here is how my layout appears in Opera (both Mac/Win are the same, the screenshot is from Opera/mac Version 8.02):

NOTE: Unfortunately, my layout breaks in existing versions of Opera (see how the "Years" text links spill out of the left-hand margin?). I was told, however, that this "bug" in Opera 8.02 was fixed in Opera 9. Also, I devised a work-around to fix this "spillage" in Opera 8: instead of putting all the years in one long list, I use 3 smaller lists, as demonstrated on this test page (http://magazinearchives.tg-16.com/mold_test_9i.htm). What an odd problem I encountered in Opera, no?
