A change of heart from the IE8 development team
It seems the IE8 development team have been listening to the community, which is great news:
We’ve decided that IE8 will, by default, interpret web content in the most standards compliant way it can. This decision is a change from what we’ve posted previously.

Non compliance sure has its own price.

Its about time they got the message, this is a good move for them and if they keep it up I think most standards aware developers will eventually come to respect them.
That’s an interesting article there Amit, maybe the voice of the developers wasn’t as loud as the EU, but I hope it had something to do with the backflip.

Also the IE must get accustomed once to the standards. Otherwise FF or Opera.

But I will further use the Firefox and only for test purposes the IE.
