title: Why does IE7 & IE8 ignore my coding for .widget class in wordpress?
body: <p>I have been css coding for my theme that is based off from Twenty Eleven. Everything looks fine except in IE7 &amp; IE8.</p>
  
  <p>I realized that in those two mentioned browsers, my styling for the widget class ".widget" is ignored. I figured this out after doing an elimination test. Every other class that I have tested takes in the css adjustments. Only those made to .widget is not taken in by IE7 &amp; 8.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a known solution to this?</p>
  
  <p>Extra information: I want the each widget to be contained within a box by implementing black borders of 1px.</p>
