Any interest in IE or Safari support? #232

The column gradually gets out of alignment as you page through a document. You can see this if you look at the sample implementation at http://monocle.inventivelabs.com.au/ if you open in IE!

This is enough to illustrate the problem. The browser I am testing with is IE 11.0.9600.16476.

In my case, I have a Word document I want to display using the reader! The content of the Word document is cleaned using http://word2cleanhtml.com/ and pasted into a txt file using Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V.

The txt file is stored on the file system of the web server and copied into the web page using PHP, etc. A remote co-worker tells me the problem also occurs in Safari. Neither of us experiences the problem using Firefox.

The implementation I am doing closely follows the instructions at https://github.com/joseph/Monocle/wiki/Integrating. We would like to keep the implementation as simple as possible. And, for now, the basic implementation is all we need except we have this display issue. I would like to see the problem solved in the Monocle code. That would be the right way to do it. Don't you agree? Thanks! Would you like to help?
