Older versions of [[Internet Explorer]] (IE), especially versions 6 and 7 (commonly abbreviated IE6 and IE7) have limitations in their CSS and HTML support. As Wikipedia expands its use of CSS3 and HTML5, support for these old browsers will become more limited, leaving older browsers unable to render a page as the editors intend. A number of specialized fixes for these older browsers are being removed as the MediaWiki software is being updated.

Line 35:

* Issues: The style sheets have rules to adjust the line height for improved readability with superscript and subscript text, including references. IE7 apparently has problems with the <code>line-height</code> CSS property. This issue appears to be resolved in Internet Explorer 8 and above.

* Fix:

<sourcesyntaxhighlight lang="CSS">@media print {

sup, sub, p, .documentDescription { line-height: normal; }

}</sourcesyntaxhighlight>
