Hello world example having an error with IE7

[noypi]

browser version: 7.0.5730.13CO

Maybe because of window.getComputedStyle, called after Value.getTextSize().

This is the workaround.

here are more properties of the window object that are 'undefined' in IE7 (same version as above):

• innerWidth
• innerHeight
• JSON
• console

have scanned them using:

• grep "window.[a-zA-Z]+" * -r -Po -h

and tested it in the HTML document generated by ELM.

I have not made a conscious effort to support IE before IE9 because (1) Elm needs some HTML5 features to work fully and (2) I have to pick my battles wisely to get the most benefit to Elm out of my time. Do other parts of the site work in IE7? And do you think the fixes you suggest would address all of the issues that would come up?

1. ok
2. right
   I really don't know, knowing it needs some HTML5 features -- then... I can live without IE7 anyways, It was just the first browser I tested Elm. I really like the idea of Elm, thank you for sharing it.

I think IE7 and 8 will be a low priority for the foreseeable future. Please tell me if you have any other issues! I'm happy to help, and I hope you enjoy using Elm!
