Unfortunately I still have to support MSIE (version 8). Can someone give
me some pointers on making RT (version 3.8.7) look as it does under
Firefox? Here are the most obvious differences:
Corners are never rounded off.
MSIE sometimes has different ideas on font sizes.
Top and left borders of subwindows (view a ticket) are missing.
Background colors are often white instead of shades of blue and grey.

A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

Corners are never rounded off.
A CSS3 feature prematurely adopted by FF and WebKit browsers with an
extension prefix. In the unlikely event that IE8 has support for them,
and your users absolutely must have rounded corners, modify a copy of
the CSS.

C’est la vie.
Top and left borders of subwindows (view a ticket) are missing.
That shouldn’t happen, and I’ve never noticed any such thing.
Background colors are often white instead of shades of blue and grey.
Probably an IE setting to override site colors with user defined colors.
Alternatives besides nuking IE: Installing Chrome in IE add-on.

This one is because IE doesn’t support the CSS corner-rounding extension
coming in CSS3. Our options were “computationally expensive javascript”,
“hand-hacking every template to give it rounded corners” or letting IE
not have rounded corners.
