And the web dev world cringes at the thought of having to provide hacked support for yet another piece of crap browser...
I'm convinced that the only standards M$ follows is their own.Quote:

That isn't saying much...
Haters. :lol:
I am going to download it, take a screen shot, print it out and wipe my arse with it...
...I cannot afford toilet paper :(
In all seriousness, I am not impressed that there is a button to render in IE7 mode... if a website breaks then let it, support standards and you will be fine.
Bah
My site is 100% standards compliant right now, and it looks like crap in IE6. So I let it. I don't care. They shouldn't be using it anyway. Because of the way it's built, it looks pretty damn close in IE7. It's right in Fx, Chrome, and Opera. So IE can suck it.
What does it look like in IE8?
After viewing TS' site in both Opera 10 (alpha), and IE8 I can say that they look identical! I cant tell the difference between the browsers.
The same thing happened with C++ compilers after the ANSI standard came out. Nobody was fully compliant, then some were, then most were, etc. The same happens with browsers, though they are a larger part of some companies than others.

Either way, I'll be downloading the Vista 64bit version.
There is a note for Windows 7 on the Other locales and versions downloads page:

We're sorry, but you won't be able to download Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 Beta at this time
Windows 7 Beta already includes a pre-release candidate version of Internet Explorer 8 that is optimized for that release. Windows 7 enables unique features and functionality in Internet Explorer 8 including Windows Touch and Jump Lists which require additional product tests to ensure we are providing the best Windows experience for our customers. We will continue to update the version of Internet Explorer 8 running on Windows 7 as the development cycles of Windows 7 progress and plan to include the final version of Internet Explorer 8 in the release candidate version of Windows 7 later this year. For the latest information on Windows 7 visit the Windows 7 site.
What changes are there in IE8 css? If there are none what is the point of upgrading to IE8 from IE7?Quote:
View any site with ease
Internet Explorer 8
Now you can quickly display websites that were designed for older browsers. If you’re looking at a page and the text or images aren’t lined up right, just use the new Compatibility View button next to the Refresh button on the Address Bar.
I'm a complete amateur in this area(as well as many other areas). If I download and install IE8 can I still run IE7 and other IE versions? I recently installed FireFox. I know I have the option of running IE7 or FireFox but I'm not clear on running different IE versions on one computer.
IE is (sadly) a Windows component, so it tends to not install multiple versions... it replaces itself, just like Windows Media Player. Out with the old, in with the new.
That's a load. My site is also built according to exact standards, looks perfect everywhere, except IE8. :rolleyes: (IE6 / 7 have minor differences, but is still good enough)Quote:

You can, however, remove it again to get back to IE 7.Quote:

Then it's about time they woke up. The question is, does it still display only the HTML that was loaded from the server? Or does it also keep up with DOM modifications? Firebug FTW ;)
I hadn't noticed that :) Good to know.Quote:

Opinions on the colored tabs?
My immediate response was I didn't like them.
What was your delayed response?
I still don't like them. :)
You are unwavering.
In this instance, yes.
Aren't they an opt in feature only (ie only when pressing ctrl+click link)
I found they popped up when you used either the big blue or green button when you highlight something on the page, and they get coloured to suit.
Or middle click... but how else do you open a link from a page to a new tab?Quote:

I think I've experienced firebut before. It's been a while since I haven't eaten any really spicey food in a while.Quote:
