Hello.

I'm having a hard time trying to work out how to deal with IE bugs.

I'm wondering if any knows a good resource for this?

I'm esp having an issue with what I think might be called a popping bug.

Basically as I rollover some links in a list item the whole <ul> jumps up and down the page!

Any suggestions?

The official Microsoft IE8 bug database (https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/Feedback) can be found here complete with a search tool and a way to add and track bugs if you register.

That's IE8 currently in release candidate status - obviously bug reporting for released versions isn't common, Microsoft could care less about fixing current stable releases or older versions. Use this page instead (http://www.quirksmode.org/bugreports/archives/explorer_windows/) to see if any users added bug reports for MSIE 6 and 7 at the popular and helpful quirksmode.org which is a third party organization serving as a reporting and collecting entity with fixes and workarounds for the public, not for Microsoft developers.

Beyond that, Google search.

Okay, now that I said all the official stuff, based on your brief description and my experience with MSIE, rollovers, CSS and UL/LI conventions - I suggest you post your code and chances are we might find alternate CSS you can use to resolve your MSIE issue. It's called CSS hacking or MSIE conditionals.
