Best plug-in of the year, so far.

Apart from what it says, I do not see problems in IE7 or IE8 (there is some style issues in IE9, though). Also, it is nearly working in IE6. I think I'll try to diddle around with some z-index and CSS stuff to get it working. Can't be much more than that.

What's the nature of the nonworkingness on the dodgy browsers? Does it fail catastrophically or degrade satisfactorily?

If you manage to fix it for other browsers I hope you push your fixes upstream.

It looks to me as if there is a z-index problem and the position is not upheld correctly in IE6. In IE9 there is a difference in the linear gradient color. No catastrophes there, imho.
