IE rendering on preview

Post by mattyk »

Hi

I've just installed IE8. When I open WeBuilder the preview is still set to IE7's rendering engine. At least that's what it says when I go to http://www.thismachine.info/.

Firstly, will there be a way to upgrade the preview to IE8? Secondly (and quite excitingly) will there be a way to switch between the 2 so that we can test in both? That would be amazing!

Cheers
M

While you wait, you can use the IE Tester application. Not a perfect solution, but a nice workaround.

At least for the nearest releases IE8 support for built-in preview is not planned, but it will come eventually.
