 If IE8 is standards-compliant, shouldn't the board look the same in IE8 as it does in other standards-compliant browsers like Firefox and Opera?
  
 Microsoft is still working on it, so I'd rather wait and see if they fix the problems than add special tags to accommodate it.
 
 
<!--[if lt IE 7]> 
<script defer="defer" type="text/javascript" src="/jscripts/pngfix.js"></script> 
<style type="text/css">@import url(/css/mpl-ie-lt7.css);</style> 
<![endif]--> 
<!--[if IE]> 
<style type="text/css">@import url(/css/mpl-ie.css);</style> 
<![endif]-->

 What? Guido wrote those CSS workarounds for final, non-beta versions of IE. =p
 
Maybe the second one should be "lt IE 8", but it's only one line of code for the footer height, so I doubt it'll make much difference. |

 IE8 is compliant to IE8's standards. IE8 is a beta, use IE7...
 
 Stop spreading BS.
 
IE8 complies 100% to both ACID 1 and ACID 2, just like Firefox and Opera does. Its not fault that websites have IE hacks and its not websites' fault that they have to use IE hacks but now its up to the websites to fix it, not IE/MS.

 IE8 complies as you know to standards.
 
 
 Noone. 
Like I said it complies to the same standards as FX/Opera |

 then why don't Firefox and Opera mess up the website too?
 
Anyway, like said before, IE8 is still in beta and will (hopefully) be supported once it reaches its final stageMan is least himself when he is in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth. (Oscar Wilde) |

 Yes, it's IE's fault. Had IE complied to standards the first time around there would have been no need for IE hacks.![[Image: msghelp.net.png]](http://dotlou.com/stuff/sigs/msghelp.net.png) The future holds bright things in it\\\'s path, but only time will tell what they are and where they come from.
