The Mistake With IE8
If you have been following the development of IE8, you have most likely heard the debate over whether IE8 should default to super standards mode or to IE7-compatible standards mode. The outcry from the community has led Microsoft to change their stance from being IE7 compatible by default to super standards by default. Joel Spolsky of Joel on Software gives a very good description of what the argument is about and why Microsoft’s current position will most likely end up biting them in the butt.
