Does anyone use Edward’s **IE8.js** ([http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/](http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/)), which allows IE to use advanced CSS psuedo classes? On his homepage ([http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/](http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/)), he promised that the **last-child** selector would work. So far, I’ve only been able to get **first-child** to work.

Top: IE8 and IE7  
Bottom: FF3

```php

<div id="nav">
   <a href="#">register</a>
   <a href="#">login</a>
   <a href="#">help</a>
</div>

#nav a {
   border-right: 1px solid #000;
}

#nav a:last-child {
   border-right: none;
}

```

What’s strange is that there was an issue filed ([http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/issues/detail?id=171&q=last-child](http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/issues/detail?id=171&q=last-child)) complaining about how last-child doesn’t work. And then someone responded and said to include IE8.js, not IE7.js. That’s what I did, but no dice…
