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.
