For some reason this isn't getting rid of the border on an <hr> in ie7... why?

Yeah, I don't like the <hr /> element. It doesn't have regular CSS attributes in IE.
Try using a div with a height of one pixel or something. That what I did (granted, it was long ago).

Well, Internet Explorer, in comparison to the available major browsers, sucks.
However, it wouldn't be a big deal at all if it didn't have so many users.
And if Microsoft hadn't forced IE upon unsuspecting Windows users, IE would have considerably less users.
And if Windows wasn't so widely used, Microsoft wouldn't be able to make IE so common.
If it didn't have so many users, Microsoft wouldn't feel that they could
create their own standards.
So... you could generalize it to just hating Microsoft and it's cockiness.

You'd think in version 7 that they'd have it up to standards and stuff. Instead they copied tabs from Firefox and thats pretty much it.

In the end you still have to make sure it shows up pretty decent in IE too, a lot of clients haven't even heard of Firefox or Opera.
try border: none

I believe that border: none; and border: 0; are equivalent.

Could be, but I remember having an issue like that (not with hr) and replacing the 0 with none fixed it,
I am permitted to share my experiences here or do I have to send you a PM first?

No, not at all. Be my guest.
I didn't mean to offend.
