centering table for IE8 - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 27th Mar 10 at 4:37pm
IE8 makes my table left aligned on iDirectory's site http://idirectory.2x.nu but in the other browsers it looks 100% perfect. {Tongue Out} How do I get this fixed?

IE hates us programmers.. {Tongue Out}

Seem centered in my copy of IE8. I find that if all else fails and IE8 still fails to display a site which IE7 will then you can just force IE8 into compatibility mode (there's a special meta tag which does this). Not the ideal solution but I find it quite laughable that Microsoft decided IE needed a compatibility mode at all {Tongue Out}

The reason why it looks good for you now is that Dwight fixed it. Using the good ol' fashion <center> tags. XD but I forgot about this post, and is all good now.

And the compatibility mode is a joke. For me it does not work. Firefox displayed everything perfect. I know there are some code issues for IE, like the board transparancy code, and image transparancy code as well. And a
few other codes of which I forgot.
