Another apparent bug in IE 7 is that it does not support :focus CSS psuedo element for non-link or non-form control elements, so basically most ARIA type elements.  

See example:

http://test.cita.uiuc.edu/aria/tree/view_html.php?title=Tree%20Example%201&ginc=includes/tree1_class.inc&gcss=css/tree1_class.css&gjs=../js/globals.js,../js/widgets_class.js,js/tree1_class.js

sorry for the long url.

Try if FF and then try in IE and notice the difference in styling as keyboard focus is changed.
