    If it works on IE7 it will work on IE8.

    False. IE8s css support is much better and some pages that were created to work with IE7 won't work correctly in IE8. What makes it worse is, IE8s "IE7 compatibility mode" doesn't work like IE7 very well either.

    IE is the most horrible browser ever.

    but if you insist on making your website compatible for the idiots too stupid to download a proper browser, try putting this between your <head></head> tags:

    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
