Very nice, very nice indeed. You’ve got me seriously tempted to spend some quality time under the hood on my own site now. Keep bumping that bar higher!

DM t3h 1337 programmer. ANyway IE sucks. I had a fair share of bullshit from it while attempting CSS for the first time and last time.

Oh my ~~god~~ Haruhi, I feel stupid now.

I blame too much C# and PHP.

Meh, wordpress ate part of my comment, here’s the first bit before the code.

To the point, you’re using wrong commenting out there.

Firefox just accepts the ‘//’ as a comment and ignores that bit. But then IE decides that this is not a valid comment and decides to execute that part as well.

Solution: replace the ‘//’s in both #outerImageContainer and #loading with a /* and */. Thus the code will look something like:

Lol, I was bored so I thought I’d twiddle around with the CSS.

To the point, you’re using wrong commenting out there
#outerImageContainer{
position: relative;
background-color: #fff;
width: 300px;
height: 375px;
/*height: 250px;*/
/*width: 250px;*/
margin: 0 auto;
}

#loading{
position: absolute;
top: 10%;
/*top: 40%;*/
left: 0%;
height: 25%;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
line-height: 0;
}

Strangely enough, there is no commented value for ‘width’ in #outerImageContainer in the actual stylesheet, check that if you want to keep the original values commented. It worked when I tested it using both ff 2.0b1 and ie6.

And tsubaki, there’s always lolifox, if you haven’t heard of that ;) – http://lolifox.com/

Someone needs to make a Firekitsune browser. And that would pwn.

Oh doesn’t that mean extra loading time? Sure is cute though.
