Attribute Selector problems in IE7 - 2/2/2007 9:42:13
nothing important, just trying to do a custom skin ~ that's supposed to be fun right ;0
I thought it would be nice to test in IE7 as it just might be possible to offer/use skin for IE7 too but... I got halted at the first hurdle
the site I would like to customise a wee bit uses tables and lots of them, and is minus any logical nesting structure in places, there are some classes set but never where you need them ;) - so the only way I can target a particular set of links is via a unique table attribute.. great, I thought, IE7 supports attribute selectors now, so this should be a breeze
but I may have found one of it's oddities - It does support the attribute selector on most elements,
BUT it doesn't seem to support selection using certain attributes and only on tables from what quick tests have shown :(
For the <table> element
Heres what works:
[summary=".."]
[custom=".."]
Here's what doesn't: (just about everything that could be useful!)
[height=".."]
[width=".."]
[border=".."]
[cellspacing=".."
[cellpadding=".."]
the ".." can be either alpha or numeric
(the unique attribute that I need to use is height :o)
this list is perhaps not exhaustive, just the ones I tried
anyway thought I would post here in case question ever comes up and I would be interested to hear if anyone has read anything about why this is, or if it's a reported bug already..

Where are you putting these attributes - in the stylesheet?
I don't think cellspacing and cellpadding are valid anymore - which DOCTYPE are you using for this?
Certainly height, width and border work fine far as I know but then I only use tables for data rather than layout.
