flot v0.5 fails to render correctly in IE8 RTM. I am using excanvas library that comes packaged with flot (as per instructions). The project description states that IE8 is supported but doesn't mention which mode (compat or standards). Does anyone have experience using flot v0.5 with IE8? Thanks ...
I am still running IE6 on my development PC because I use it to test the websites I'm developing. I normally only test on IE6, assuming that IE6 is the lowest common denominator of IE family of browsers. If it renders well on IE6, it will be OK for IE7 and IE8. The other browser I use heavily for testing is Firefox 3.x. I assume th...

We use self signed certificates on our intranet. What do I need to do to get IE8 to accept them without showing an error message to the user? What we did for IE7 apparently isn't working. EDIT: IE7 wouldn't show any errors if I put the certificate into trusted root certification authorities. IE8 seems to show errors even with the certif...

It has worked fine for years, but now I am trying to add an img tag in the html, with a width of 740px, which fills the space nicely in lower resolutions. It works fine in all browsers t...
What changed in IE8 that makes detecting InfoCard Selector support in javascript stop working unless IE8 is put in Compatibility Mode? And more to the point, what is the new JavaScript code to detect the presence of InfoCard support?

Hi, I have a simple webpage containing a .NET usercontrol embedded using the OBJECT tag. In IE7, the page displays and I can use the usercontrol. However, in IE8, the usercontrol does not even load. Any thoughts / ideas? ...
My site has many style sheets customized for varying screen widths. As the browser is resized, the window.onresize event checks that a resize actually took place by looking at document.documentElement.clientWidth. If it did, it turns on successively larger style sheets until scrollbars appear. Then, it turns them off in reverse order unt...
I am using the following code to set a session cookie HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("visitId"); cookie.Value = value; cookie.Domain = ".example.com"; Response.Cookies.Set(cookie); This works fine, although I was surprised to see in IE8 when I hit F12 (developer tools) and then 'Cache > View Cookie...
I've noticed a strange behavior in two different sites when using IE8. The first site is in the site that I maintain xebra.com. The second site is google analytics. The behavior is that when an address is typed directly into the address bar of IE8, both sites display correctly, But when one of the sites has already been loaded, an...
IE 6+ had the capability to hold ctrl + mousewheel to increase and decrease the text size on the page. However, now IE 8 has replaced that functionality with the widely accepted full page zoom +-. Has anyone found a keyboard shortcut that will just increase and decrease the text size again? ...

I just discovered a rather peculiar issue in IE8 for a HTTPS link. Every time the page tries to access the HTTPS link, it produces an error. This happens only in IE8 and nothing else. Any idea what's going on? I found some items that said that means the files were not loaded, hence the issue and tried some fixes recommended, but they ...
I used to access individual characters of a string using string[n]. But when I do this in IE8 it always returns undefined when I do this. I can use string.substr(n, 1) to do the same thing, but the syntax is much longer. Why did they do this? ...
IE8 has a feature called InPrivate Filtering, which will block scripts it finds on webpages from more than 'n' different sites. I'm listening to the most recent 'Security Now' podcast which is raving about this feature as being great. At the very same time I'm screaming NOOO! What the *#&$ -- because my site (as does many many others) ...
Hi, I am looking for a tool that can allow me to run IE6, IE7 (and IE8 if possible) on my machine. I found something on the net like this and some other interesting solutions but I need your opinion based on experience-which is the best choice for running multiple IE instances from the point of view of a web-developer. Edit: thank yo...
On a https site that I am working on, I keep getting "Do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely?.

Form actions are ...
