Internet Explorer 8 Compatibility

After release of new Microsoft Internet Explorer 8, few clients reported compatibility issues. Most common web site problems include shifting of site menu to the left and other positioning issues. We offer to fix compatibility problems for our clients free of charge. Please contact our development team.

This issues are only related to IE8. According to Microsoft, IE8 improves rendering of content authored to various web standards (like HTML, CSS and JavaScript) in standards mode. Such changes might cause it to break compatibility as its behavior differs significantly from that of IE7. In order to maintain backwards compatibility, sites can opt-into IE7-like handling of content by inserting a specially created meta element into the web page, that triggers the "IE7 standards mode" in the browser , using following meta tag:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

Example:

<html>
   <head>
   
      <title>Web Page Title</title>
      <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
   </head>
   <body>
      <p>Content goes here.</p>
   </body>
</html>

This will force IE8 to use IE7 compatibility mode. EmulateIE7 mode tells Windows Internet Explorer to use the <!DOCTYPE> directive to determine how to render content. Standards mode directives are displayed in Internet Explorer 7 Standards mode, and Quirks mode directives are displayed in IE5 mode. Unlike IE7 mode, EmulateIE7 mode respects the <!DOCTYPE> directive. For many Web sites, this is the preferred compatibility mode.

As an option, user could switch IE8 into compatibility mode, clicking on Compatibility View button, located next to web site URL field, but, of cause, since this is not IE8 default mode, web site in question will be broken when opened in IE8. Please contact us for detailed solution.
