Ugghh..... So I used this tool CSS Tidy (http://csstidy.sourceforge.net/) to compress the CSS files in the "smoothness" theme... Only option I used was "template=low", which resulted in this file (which looks like it just removed comments) http://stuff.morningz.com/public/Coding/jQuery/smoothness.low.css That downsized the 162kb file all the way down to 22kb Works fine in FireFox (not a surprise), but doesn't work in IE7 (not all that much a surprise) http://i41.tinypic.com/714rqx.jpg shows what i mean Is there any "official" (read: IE compatable) way to get these size of these monster CSS files down
