IEBlog : Standards and CSS in IE
In addition we’ve added support for the following

* HTML 4.01 ABBR tag
* Improved (though not yet perfect) fallback
* CSS 2.1 Selector support (child, adjacent, attribute, first-child etc.)
* CSS 2.1 Fixed positioning
* Alpha channel in PNG images
* Fix :hover on all elements
* Background-attachment: fixed on all elements not just body

It’s about time. IE 7.0 still presents a lot of problems with CSS and functionality, but they have come a lot closer and makes life a little easier on us web developers. Yet still, many things go unsupported and leave us in a crutch to still create a separate IE specific CSS style sheet in order to give IE the functionality it needs. They are still just slowly making progress.
