The Internet Explorer Development Blog informs site developers many IE-specific and aggravating CSS bugs will be fixed. Until then Microsoft developers recommend phasing out any hacks and workarounds. In the spirit of this bold proposal, I built the new USL Site Theme using no CSS hacks. Opera, Firefox and Netscape for Windows render the site quite well- I still have to work out a non-IE-specific Float Drop in the Content Edit pages.
As for Internet Explorer, don't bother. I mean that. The site is essentially unusable and just plain ugly. If you're curious, go ahead and try, but I won't take responsibility for any aggrivation incurred if you attempt serious navigation. Once you're using a browser with non-farked CSS 2 support, you should see a Front Page currently set to display User Blogs and a variety of links arrayed in Four Columns. On pages requiring room for a large table of data, like the Fora, the Third Column will disappear. Aside from any minor theme changes, keep an eye out for some updates to the news aggregator- I'll be pulling and adding sources. The reason will be made clear soon enough.
