We have found one problem with IE 7 and PeopleTools
8.46 on Portal 8.8.

We have a custom application that uses html areas.
The HTML content of the areas was generated
dynamically so the size of the area on the page did
not correspond to the size required for the browser.

Tools generated the page with the height of the area
on the page i.e.

<div style="width:500px; height:20px; " >
<!-- Begin HTML Area UOA_HTML_UOA_HTML_LONG_02 -->

This worked fine with IE 6 but IE 7 reads the tag
correctly. (It also did not work for Firefox.)

we have a quick hack to fix this in the HTML field
used in the area we prepend to the field value

</div><div style="height:auto ">

Closing the tag generated by tools and opening our
own.
