Anyone got IE7?
I just heard from a reader that it's appearing at the bottom for IE7, also. From what I've read, IE7 is supposed to understand fixed positioning. Maybe not true?
[edit]
I just moved the div to the top of the page, so it's more noticeable. Still not "fixed" (in IE6) like it's supposed to be. Can someone with IE7 or 8 tell me what they see?

Seriously? Like, no site at all?
Working for me here, but I know how little that counts for.

No, that was a joke
I'm on linux here, and while ie4linux is a cool package, the truth is that it turns this computer into a dog, a sniveling buttlick dog no less, so I don't have the wherewithal to actually go look at the site in IE. Sorry.

Had me scared for a minute there
Just spent a half-hour checking out some online browser emulators, see if I could use them for remote testing. The best of the bunch still only gives screenshots.
How does anyone without a room full of hardware test javascript behavior these days? (That's only partially rhetorical.)

A room full of hardware...
Or a Big Ole Computer with a buncha VMs on it.

Not here. NetRenderer?
I don't have a good feeling about trying to upgrade IE on old hardware. Sorry.
Is something like this good enough? http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/
HTH.
Cheers,
Scott.

That's one of the ones I tried
It only gives static shots, and what I need to check doesn't show up until 2 seconds after the load. Plus IE6 chokes with an internal error.
There are a few products you can install that claim to emulate things, but all of them I saw were Win or Mac only.

IE 7.0.5730.11 on WinXP
On http://tastespotter.blogspot.com/ the pop-in red box seems to work Ok - it fades in and expands from the left margin.
However, the layout seems to be broken as the right column of the page (your picture, etc.) is displayed below the fade-in box on the left column. Also, the box under the "Buy the book" text shows an embedded 500 error page.
On http://blog.cooklikeyourgrandmother.com/ - the red fade-in box fades in and expands from the left margin even if I don't page down. Everything is also in the left column here.
HTH a little. Let me know if you want me to mail you a screen-shot.
Cheers,
Scott.

Sounds like it's working right
For the Tastespotter test site, I pulled out most of the content in the right columns. Lots of it was scripts and/or linking to third-party sites, which just slowed down testing.
