Hmm...I disagree - the great majority of csszengarden submissions are compatible in IE. And the ones that aren't usually break down nicely. I guess "KIller Style" is a submission that strongly relies on features not supported in IE. But IE most cretainly does not "rip it apart".
http://onemanshortproductions.com/ is using sweet titles, the same as I am and mine work fine in IE. It seems someone has messed with Dustin's work and borx'd it up.
I fixed the excessive js but only including 3 of them on the page that needs them. It's strange that sweet titles worked in IE before but now aren't doing so for me...
