    My website works fine on mobile, Chrome, Safari, Opera and Firefox. However, when I try to load in Internet Explorer 8/9 there are issues. Please provide a timeline for completion and an estimated cost. Thanks!

    I had some trouble with CSS on Internet Explorer 8 the other day and wondered why the hell it wasn't working.

    After hours of frustration, I disabled compatibility mode by clicking on "Tools" > "Compatibility View" and it just worked.
    image_thumb.png But I had to disable this for the whole site, without having to teach each user about it. Luckily, there is a meta tag for it!

    Add the following tag into the head section of your page and IE will use the specified rendering mode.


    1.[COLOR=#000000 !important]<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />





    Unsure which version of Internet Explorer supports this, but I know IE8 and IE9 honours this setting.*update 12/8/2011*
    OK, this caused a bit of confusion to me but I figured out why rounded corners (CSS border-radius) wasn't working on IE9.
    I shot myself in the foot because I've set the "IE=8" compatibility mode, IE9 will not render rounded borders because IE8 doesn't actually support it.
    After reading a post on StackOverflow, I looked up the docs for document compatibility and found a fix. Set the order of compatibility in this format:
    1.[COLOR=#000000 !important]<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9; IE=8; IE=7; IE=EDGE" />[/COLOR]


    Now it'll try IE9 mode first, IE8, then IE7. You can even set IE=EDGE so it'll use the highest mode possible.
