Make IE works well

As you all know, IE has the bugs that driving a lot of web designers crazy, we all went “Oh fuck!” when a client replied with IE viewing problem, especially IE6.

Of course, there is also lots of hack can be applied on IE to make it work well. However, applying those hack may sometimes, time consuming. How can you work on the speed while not to worry about IE bugs?

Using padding instead of margin

Padding
IE double margin, the biggest problem web designers are facing. Change it, use padding instead.

Unless you’re applying CSS3, else, count it out, it’s won’t be that difficult if you’re using grid system :)

Padding bug? Then position the structure

Positioning
I haven’t encounter any padding bug yet. But if they do, well, positioning work well on IE too ;)

Most used position: relative and position: absolute aren’t that dizzy after all.

The badass Javascript

The problem I don’t like about Mozilla Firefox is that sometimes it works pretty damn well even Javascript is not valid.

Check through your Javascript sometimes. It may cause problem too.

Nowadays, after a few frameworks and some idea about IE bugs, I am pretty much worry free on IE. That speed up my work progress on developing the front-end :)
