Web design got you down?

Design Team: “Our web site looks ok in all of those other browsers, but just not right in IE8.”

Announcer: “Well, now it can!” “With the NEW X-UA-Compatible meta tag <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=EmulateIE7″ /> , get your pages looking JUST RIGHT on your local IE8 browser.”

Design Team: “Seriously!?! There must be a catch?”

Announcer: “There’s no catch! You don’t even have to REMOVE THE DOCTYPE!!!!! Just let X-UA-Compatible work for YOU!”

Design Team: “WOW!”

Announcer: “Act now, before this meta tag is GONE FOREVER… or replaced by IE9’s own version. Here’s how to order.”
