    Admin Styles For IE

    If your like me and your using Internet Explorer than you know that the admin menus are a disaster. I have totally re styled them for IE for use on my site. Is anyone else interested in this? I will share the files if anyone wants them.

    Your first mistake is using IE. ClassiPress works best in FireFox but should work fine in IE. Can you give me more info on what you mean by "disaster"? Screen shots and browser version will help.

    First off when you activate the theme you will notice that the icon does not work in the admin menu. And there are no borders between the option so they all just run together.

    I dont mind IE and have never had much trouble with it. As a web desiner when making a design i must code for it anyways so i just use it. I have FF and Opera and Safari also but to be honest IE to me is much faster. plus there are a few plugins for IE than i cant seem to get for the others. IM using IE7 at the momment. I have never jumped on the FF boat since i dont think its a good browser at all. My next option for a browser would be Safari 4. To me FF has always been one of those things that they just make a big fuss for no reason. Its no better than anything else, UI looks like crap. Safari 4 has way more features.

    This admin menu plugin works well and does not seem to cause any issues with Classipress.

    Code:

    or search for "ozh Worpdress Admin Drop Down Menu" at wordpress
