    Tweaking IE7 to IE8
    « on: February 04, 2010, 03:11:40 PM »
    How much of an added cost projection(% wise) would there be in tweaking a site that is compatible with IE7 to also being compatible with IE8?

    I don't understand the question...
    Both browsers follow the same guidelines...any site builder is aware of this.

      Actually, no. IE8 displays things "right", from what I've seen. As long as you add a DOCTYPE to your pages it should work. This is another reason to use web standards technology.

        I would rather not divulge the name of the site publicly, but will be happy to do so in a private message

        We really need to see the site to understand WHY it is not working correctly with IE8. This is a computer help forum, not some shady website promising free programs.
