Would like to know if you ever tried IE8 beta so far, I'm sure pretty much of you did.
I got really sick seeing my pages in IE8 tho thus showing great and same on every possibly other browser including older versions of IE.

They made "readiness toolkit", but are you really willing to take "readiness" ? <

I use IE8 as my standard browser, mainly because it is now possible to test your pages as if they were being viewed by IE6/IE7 or IE8 smile
I have found a few quirky pages, some because the pages are coded wrong and a couple which were obvious bugs in IE8, you can set IE8 to run as IE7 by default which should not give you any problems<

Hey Huw how do you get to IE8 to emulate IE6?<

open the dev toolbar and set it to Quirks mode, that emulates IE5/6 or Strict mode for IE7<

I played with IE8, almost immediately had to emulate IE7 because of errors; got disgusted and went back to 7.<

Well, one of obvious bug I noticed was "<a name="top"></a>" now acts as a complete new line like <br />, can't ofcourse go top "top" too... You can't vertical-align divs as well, no matter what you do etc. <

Same here but I'm going to keep trying it for a while.<

Actually, 8 in emulation mode is less crash prone than 7. 7 was crashing about 5 times a day (had to kill it from Task Manager), so I'm using 8 and don't see me going back smile.<
