I would like to see something such as the following added for IE6 fixes:

/* ie6 fixes */
.lt-ie7 #page {width: 990px;}
.lt-ie7 .content-inner {padding: 0 20px;}

ie6 doesn't recognize "max-width" and for some reason, there doesn't appear to be any padding for the main content...? At least in my scenario there wasn't...

I've added this as a "feature request" considering only about ~5% of all internet traffic is through ie6 now-a-days (FINALLY...! never thought I'd see the day!)

Title: IE6 Width and Main Content Padding » IE7 Main Content Padding
Category: feature » bug

IE6 I don't really care about, not to be callous but if people need to support it then that's up to them. I do take care not to smash the layout (believe me, I would love to get rid of a wrapper and some other rules as well), but apart from that...

IE7 - I haven't looked for ages also, its getting pretty low in usage, but I am surprised there is no padding, but I would be quite weary of padding the content inner div, more likely something inside of it. I'll take a look for IE7, that I will consider a bug, it should at least be displaying OK for IE7 (which will probably fix IE6 as well).

Now, the set width thing - in the next version this is going to be default for all my themes, I'm taking a different approach and old IE will get the standard layout only.

No worries on supporting IE6, I had a feeling that was your stance and I don't blame you. Just figured I would throw it out there in case you were gung-ho about still supporting it : )

No, not gung-ho, I have supported this browser since it was born, I am happy to see the back of it after all these years.
