Try it, you’ll like it. Or… not.

The left sidebar, right sidebar, navigation, footer, and closure regions are all missing. While the content area appears to be as wide as 100% of the viewport.

IE5 broke before 0.7 was released and unfortunately didn't fix itself when the default CSS layout method changed.

Title: Layout horribly broken in IE5 » IE5 always loads @import print stylesheet
Status: Active » Fixed

Turns out there is a known bug in IE5.

If a print stylesheet is added using the @import method, IE5 will ignore the fact that it is for "print" media and load it for "all" media.

The fix is to use the <link rel="stylesheet" href="print.css" type="text/css" media="print" /> method of importing a stylesheet.

The @import method is primary used to prevent older 4.x-gen browsers from loading stylesheets. So changing the import method should have no real impact since we are only changing the method for the print stylesheets.
