From looking at a few other glitches I think it has something to do with IE7b2 handling of iframes.

Do any of you know if MS is looking into fixing these issue?
I hope so, otherwise I will be spending nights banging my head against the wall trying to find a solution, while continuly coursing Microsoft for making such crap, buggy, browsers.

Hi all, and especially Borg (Bruce).
I asked Microsoft about this problem and they answered me.
My question:
Subject: A bug in IE 7 (WYSIWYG doesn't work)
There is a bug in IE 7. I will provide you with URL to the topic of the forum, that explains this bug. The WYSIWYG is not working in IE 7.
URL: http://forums.webwiz.net/forum_posts.asp?TID=18250
I am wondering if you will fix this bug, which causes a big problem to users of forums that use rich text editors.
Microsoft's answer:
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Customer Service.
I understand that WYSIWYG doesn't work with the Beta 2 Preview of Microsoft Internet Explorer 7. I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you.

Features and a tour of Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview can be viewed on this page: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/default.mspx
We will be doing a series of blog posts in the upcoming days at http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/default.aspx highlighting the new features in the Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview with quite a bit of detail. These will answer a lot of questions about how the new features work.

What a very nice way of passing the buck and not doing anything.
This is pretty much the usual reply from Microsoft, which is why reporting anything to them is a complete waste of time.
Looks like also a few people have reported this issue in the newsgroups that you link to in your post.

Apparently newer builds of IE7 beta 2 have fixed the re-draw issue with the browser, but at the moment I can not confirm this as web wiz guide is moving offices over the next few weeks and don't have any test machines available at this time to load the newer builds of IE7 beta 2 on.

Gotcha, do you just have a variable toggle in the code? If so, I'd be happy to turn it on again and test it for you.

In version 8 you can enable it by editing the file 'functions/functions_common.asp' at line 164 you will find the follwoing:-
'ElseIf CInt(Trim(Mid(strUserAgent, CInt(inStr(1, strUserAgent, "MSIE", 1)+5), 1))) >= 6 Then
ElseIf CInt(Trim(Mid(strUserAgent, CInt(inStr(1, strUserAgent, "MSIE", 1)+5), 1))) = 6 Then
Remove the line shown in blue, then remove the single quote on the first line (quote shown in red)
