It won’t be long until IE8 is shipped – beta 2 released on 27 August 08 and there seems to be an issue with the top and footer positioning.
For the moment we can add to the head:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
which will make IE8 render as IE7 so it is not an urgent problem but I do hope you will update iris at some point.
If anyone would like to check out their site in IE8 beta 1 (they will surely upgrade to beta 2 very shortly) here are a couple of free sites:
Browser Shots
Geotek Net Renderer – IE 0nly
As a very time challenged hand-coder, ja_iris has been a joy to work with – very logical with the id and class names and well commented – thank you!
Here is a screenshot (part) from browsershots.org of the demo 1.5x ja_iris showing the error (the display is similar in my 1.0.15 site I have just upgraded)
Thank you again from Hils
