A site I’m working features anythingslider and displays beautifully in MSIE 9, FF 4, FF 3, Chrome, and Opera. The page renders horribly in MSIE 8 however. Something is causing IE8 to work in compatibility mode, which is also breaking several :hover effects.
The anythingslider object doesn’t appear to be as wide or tall in IE8 as it is in IE9 and other CSS3 compliant browsers. This appears to be causing the back/next arrows to be chopped, and the text in the lower area of the object isn’t visible.
I’ve tried using loose and transitional doctypes, neither affect the problem.
Could someone take a look and see what I might be doing wrong? IE8 wonkiness

I noticed that IE8 continues to display in compatibility mode. I’ve cleaned up all of the page errors, except for these three:
Is there a workaround for this? ( For others reading, if IE8 renders in compatibility mode the :hover psuedoclass won’t work. )
April 26, 2011 at 4:49 pm #49155astembridgeParticipantQuick update – I fixed the two inline errors by moving the href tags around. The final error (span) persists…
April 26, 2011 at 4:59 pm #49158astembridgeParticipantI noticed a lingering “bug” with IE8. Captions loading from the top appear just fine. The right-loading caption (lower right corner) is chopped off, and the bottom-loading caption doesn’t appear at all.
Help? :-)

April 26, 2011 at 6:04 pm #49169astembridgeParticipantSome images call for a caption on different sides. Your demo works fine, so I don’t know what I am doing that causes my page to render the right caption incorrectly. Hoped there was an easy answer.
Ideally I would force all IE users to upgrade to MSIE 9, FF or Chrome. ;)

Thank you both!!!
