Help:Internet Explorer
Older versions of Internet Explorer have limitations in CSS and HTML support. As Wikipedia advances with CSS3 and HTML5, support for these 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.
Where possible, users should upgrade to Internet Explorer 8 or higher or install Firefox, Google Chrome or other modern browser. We understand that some users do not have a choice, either by limitations of their system, corporate policy or compatibility with other software.
