Why does Microsoft have to be so difficult?

  • Why does Microsoft have to be so difficult?

    I have been developing a calendar plug-in for the past two weeks, thought I was all finished, I was testing the plug-in out on a few sites when I was informed that the calendar wasn’t displaying properly. Turns out that the plug-in works in every other browser on every other operating system except internet explorer.

    I was hoping someone with a bit of css skill could give me a little help fixing up some of the css loose ends.

    This is the css and html in question.

    css

    .calendar-event{text-align:center;margin:4px 2px 0px 2px;background:#CF3333 none repeat scroll 0%;border-color:#CF3333;border-style:solid;border-width:0pt 1px;color:#FFFFFF;display:block;font-size:85%;font-family:Verdana,Sans-serif;}

.calendar-event b{border-color:#CF3333;border-style:solid;border-width:1px 0pt 0pt;display:block;font-weight:normal;left:0pt;position:relative;top:-1px;}

.calendar-event b b{border-width:0pt 0pt 1px;top:2px;}

.calendar-event b b b{background:transparent none no-repeat scroll left center;border-width:0pt;cursor:pointer;padding:1px;top:-1px;overflow:hidden;}

    HTML

    <div id="event_" class="calendar-event">
    <b><b><b>Some Text</b></b></b>
</div>

    any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Levi
