Not sure yet. As long as the JS library we're using doesn't know about IE8 we'll have to. They expect this to be fixed early 2009. But until then it should be fine in compatibility mode. > otherwise i consider that a huge failure of SCs design goals. Why? It does work.

It's fully supported, even now, months before release (as well as its 7 year old brother IE6!). We're spending/wasting more time with IE compatibility than for any other of the browsers out there. We know (sadly) about its importance. Michael _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
