IE7 Beta2 zoom issue

Post by Elaine »

Something strange happens in Internet Explorer 7 (Beta 2) when using the new zoom feature. The top level of the menu displays perfectly, but all the submenus are blurry. This happens even at as small a zoom as 105%. You might want to try IE7 on Milonic's own menu. It's fuzzy, but the font in my submenus (Arial) is much worse (http://www.chai.org.il/en/home/e_index.htm). The tooltips on the Milonic page (http://milonic.com/tooltips.php) are really bad. (The problem seems to affect other companies' javascript menus too.)

In a recent thread started by someone else, John wrote:
Also, we do not support beta software. There is no way of knowing how many additional changes/bug fixes will be made before the final release comes out, and it's simply not practical, and way too time-consuming, to try and keep up with betas (not to mention, I would think, obvious).
Please note that I am NOT suggesting that Milonic change its menu in any way to accomodate a beta version of IE7. As far as I'm concerned, the Milonic menu is perfect exactly as it is. However, since this zoom is apparently one of the most popular features of the new browser, and since the point of the beta is for application developers to let Microsoft know about any glitches, someone at Milonic might want to notify Microsoft.

Thanks.

Hi Elaine -

I will note your post to Andy. He's really swamped with new projects so might miss this.

Haven't seen B7 yet - I've really gotten used to FF - so much better!
