  Jeffrey Zeldman writes in IE7 CSS tweak show and tell: Once IE7 gains critical mass, a lot of our current thinking about ems and pixels and such will go out the window.

• 10.2.06 Firefox and Web Design: Top 5 Extensions posted in Web Design

  This is more or less a “Top Firefox Addons” post, but pretty much our entire selection of Firefox extensions are geared towards web design/development, so that’s what I’m calling it.

Internet Explorer 7 is only 54% compatible with the CSS 2.1 standard, vs. firefox’s 93% and Opera 9’s 96% (statistical analysis based on this source).
