IE8 bug
Submitted by brilang on Wed, 12/17/2008 - 00:27
In IE8, ShadedBorder does not work.
Try the test page (http://www.ruzee.com/files/shadedborder/test.html) in IE8 and you will see what I mean.
Can anyone identify the problem? And a solution?

IE8 1 pixel bug
Hi,
I was wondering why I didn't notice this problem but others did, until I visited the example page with another computer and another screen size/resolution. Then I saw what everyone is talking about... the 1 pixel error in the shadow.
Playing a little, I noticed that when changing the browser's window size, the webpage re-adjusts for the new page size, the rendered element changes in width and height, and the error disappears... and sometimes re-appears at certain sizes.
Did anyone else notice this, and could this be the path in getting to the solution for this bug? In other words does the bug appear only at certain widths or heights of the rendered element?

Still an issue?
Are you saying version 0.6.2 doesn't fix the problem for you?
Oops
Oops, You're right... I was checking a page that still runs the 0.6.1 version. Now running IE8 on the (online) full-featured example page, I have no 1px bug, no way, no where... I missed the update because I'm only checking the forum, and never your home page... Oops 2.0...
Thanks for the update!

Re: IE8 bug
Sorry. No, I can't identify the problem? Actually, I don't see any problem using IE8. Could you be more specific?

Found a work around...
Don't know what the problem is, but I did find a work around while reading Beyond DOCTYPE: Web Standards, Forward Compatibility, and IE8 on A List Apart. (http://alistapart.com/articles/beyonddoctype)
I simply added this tag:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />to every page (immediately following the
<head>tag.Hope this helps others.
It would still be nice if someone could find a proper solution.
