IE7 don’t handle quoets?

Nov 17.2006

Hi,

Does Microosft’s Internet Explorer 7 really not support quotes!?

[code=html]blockquote q {
quotes: “« ” ” »” “‘” “‘”;
}[/code]

IE7 is the only Web browser I could find that does not insert « the quotations mark properly. » In fact it does not insert them at all!

Have a look at [url=http://bonaveo.net/2006/11/whole-world-to-benefit-from-digital-age/]this blog post[/url] in Opera or Firefox and then in IE7.

Suggestions on work around methods?

[b]Update:[/b] Safari 2 does not display the space following my quotations mark. How to fix this?

@MoldarinauthorNov 17.2006 — I did not like the first solution, where you should remove the style sheet's handling and add the quotations mark manually.

This [url=http://clagnut.com/blog/157/]CSS hack[/url] caused more problems than solutions.

And using JavaScript to fix typography? Come on! There really must be better solutions out there?

Success!
