What should I keep in mind when designing a page for IE7?

Generally speaking, IE7 will be more standards compliant then IE6, but still behind Firefox (Camino), Safari, and Opera. A logical way of designing a site is to design with one of the above browers in mind, making it work with the rest, and then adjusting the stylesheets and/or use conditional comments to make it work in IE7 and IE6-.

The following paper was used as the basis briefing for the campus web publishers group, and briefly covers some things to be aware of as well as providing resources for further reading.
