WowWiki (and other brands) are completely broken under IE8.

 *  (that's not a wikia's response)  What is broken, WoWWiki or IE8? I hate having to code hacks for specific browsers. I see that IE8 needs also hacks to make the web compatible with that browser, which is really stupid. Instead, IE8 should be compatible with the web.
 * If you are still using IE, please, do us (the web developers community) a favor and use an alternate browser that follows the latest standards. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 16:44, 17 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you, Ciencia :) If it gets close to IE8's release and there are still problems we will certainly spend time looking into it. We (and especially myself) did check over how the site acted in IE8 Beta 2 a while back, and I know it resulted in blank pages in some circumstances - though that appeared intermittent. There is always the IE7 compatibility mode, a single click away, that should make it work fine for now. 17:44, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

As long as the Doctype is good, iE8 should use the higher standard it has. At least that is what it say in that article. — TulipVorlax 19:19, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
