Along with the rest of the Web, I’ve been following the recent months of discussion regarding IE8, its version targeting behavior and its support for Web standards. There are a number of opinions about a whole variety of things regarding IE, and I won’t get involved in most of them. In fact, I tend not to follow these discussions very closely, but I’m trying to get better about it lately, now that I’m taking a more active role on the Web. Of interest to me is the announced commitment to Web standards, and I’d like to focus on a somewhat smaller detail, and in a way you might not expect.
