    <p>It's actually two part question regarding my simple page (that will be replaced some day with real content), HTML+CSS boilerplate used there for vertical centering and <strong>IE7</strong>.</p> <p><a href="http://engitize.net/" rel="nofollow">http://engitize.net/</a></p> <ol> <li><p>Can anyone provide detailed explanation why the page is displayed correctly in non-IE browsers (Chrome, Fx, Opera), almost all semi-recent to recent IEs (IE5.5, IE6, IE8, IE9), but not in IE7?</p> <p><em>I am especially interested in: it works in IE6, yet it doesn't work in IE7, because... kind of explanation.</em></p></li> <li><p>What should be changed to make <code>div#c</code> properly centered vertically in IE7?<br> I am using specific height for <code>div#c</code>, but used boilerplate is height-agnostic and fix should preserve this feature.</p> <p><em>Spoiling other browsers is not an option, unless it's IE5.5 (ok, IE6 too, but only if it is really unavoidable).</em></p> <p><em>Changing <code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;</code> and turning IEs into quirks mode is also not accepted (and it's a pretty bad practice for newly developed pages).</em></p></li> </ol> <p>If you don't have IE7 (just as I), you can visit <a href="http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/" rel="nofollow">http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/</a> or <a href="http://browserling.com/" rel="nofollow">http://browserling.com/</a>, paste URL there and choose IE7 to see the problem yourself.</p> <hr> <p>Because the page will change after accepting some answer, I'm providing snapshot of relevant HTML and CSS parts from it (with logo URL changed to be absolute).</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /&gt; &lt;style type="text/css"&gt; html, body { height: 100%; } body { background-color: #fff; color: #000; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } div { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } #outer { position: relative; width: 100%; height: 100%; overflow: visible; } #outer[id] { display: table; position: static; } #middle { position: absolute; top: 50%; width: 100%; text-align: center; } /* for explorer only*/ #middle[id] { display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle; position: static; } #c { position: relative; top: -50%; } /* for explorer only */ #c { width: 385px; height: 120px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } #c { background-image: url(http://engitize.net/engitize.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center top; } #c div { position: relative; top: 100px; width: 100%; color: #666; font-weight: bold; font-family: serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: right; } #footer { width: 100%; text-align: center; height: 15px; padding: 5px 0 0 0; margin: -20px auto 0 auto; border: 0; background-color: #def; } #footer div { padding: 0px 5px 0px 5px; text-align: right; font-size: 10px; font-family: sans-serif; } a { text-decoration: none; color: #006; } a:hover { color: #00c; } p { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="outer"&gt;&lt;div id="middle"&gt;&lt;div id="c"&gt;&lt;div&gt; because history is important! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="footer"&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;p style="float:left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Przemysław Pawełczyk&lt;/strong&gt;'s imprint | Coming in 2012!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="float:right;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://przemoc.net/"&gt;Przemoc's network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COI'll take a look at your updated/bountied question when I get a chance. It just seemed pointless to investigate before. Just one thing though - you should forget IE5(.5) ever existed. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer#Market_share_history_overview_by_year_and_version - *nobody* uses it.

    2. CO@thirtydot Sure, there is no need to support IE5.5 (I said from the beginning that spoiling page in it is acceptable, so I don't know why are you bringing it here), but it's nice when things works there "by the way". :) Unfortunately IE6 is still not dead.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
