A few people pointed out that in my resent post MapCruncher and the Stubaitalbahn my demo page did not work in IE8 beta 2. It does work in IE8, but you need to use compatibility mode. However I have discovered that many new IE8 users have not discovered compatibility mode yet! As I have not yet had time to fix the page properly, I wanted to force the page to always use compatibility mode in IE8.
Luckily I went to an excellent presentation on IE8 (by Travis Leithead) at ReMix in Brighton recently and I learnt that all you needed to do is to add this tag to the html:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
You can of course see this action on my MapCruncher demo page
