Microsoft Internet Explorer Wallpaper
This week, I brought an old idea of mine to life. A tribute to all web designers that sacrificed large parts of their lives to battle the Evil Blue E. Working around the countless CSS and DOM bugs and inconsistencies of Internet Explorer makes web design a living hell. Thank you, Microsoft.
For the people happy enough not to know anything about CSS hacks: the * html { display: none; } declaration is an old web design joke. When specified in the CSS, it will cause MSIE 6 and older to display a blank page instead of the website’s content. Normal browsers are not affected.
