Nice widget. To fit to wp2.6 design rules please add at line 138 styleclass definition “widget” to div declaration e.g.
echo '<div class="widget">' . "\n";
It works, but not in damn IE7
change 138 into
echo '<li class="widget">' . "\n";and 151 into
echo '</li>' . "\n";This should work for ie/ff/opera.
Hi Michael, thanks for the tip. As you can see it’s been a while since we’ve touched this widget.
The changes have been made and the new files are up in the latest version.
