Any tips to lessen errors and issue on IE browsers. I believe I'm not the only one who gets annoyed when doing a browser compatibility check on IE. Lol
The best way to proceed would be to use the IE conditional statement to use a customised stylesheet which fixes any bugs you notice on IE. IE is shit and there's nothing more you can do. IE9 is quite good though compatibility wise.
IE9 is better than IE8 but being better than "shit" is no compliment and never makes any browser "quite good".
For any version of IE, you will want to install the MS Internet Developer Toolbar plug-in, which is basically Microsoft's sad attempt at building a FireBug-like tool for IE. It's a lot more clunky than FireBug, but it does work and it's saved my ass on many a project that required IE6 compatibility for my clients.
