IE 8 - a Little Better, Not Perfect. You Really Should Use Some Other Browser …

Well, I managed to make my blog look a little better in IE8. Not too good, but a little better.

Here is how it looks now, on Internet Explorer 8:

It is the same if you are using IE 9 in “compatibility mode” (emulation of IE 8).

In IE9 - it is much better, and pretty much the same as in all other better “Normal” browsers, like Chrome or Firefox.

What is the change? Well… see below:

My Octopress Site on IE8 - Does Not Look Good

My Octopress site does notlook good on Internet Explorer 8.

Octopress - the blog aware static site generator - is made for “Hackers”. And… yes I know… good “Hackers” don’t really tend to use Internet Explorer at all. But still - I do have Internet Explorer. I have Windows 7 and IE8 on my work PC. And I have to use it, at least for work issues. That’s how discoveres the IE8 bug…

See the screenshot down here…

מנסה את ‘אוקטופרס’ עם כותרת פוסט בעברית

החלטתי לנסות ולראות מע יעשה Octopress אם אכניס תווים עבריים, ככוחתרת - בתוך:
rake new_post["title"]
אז הנה מה שניסיתי - כדי ליצור את הדף שמול עיננו:
rake new_post["A מנסה את 'אוקטופרס' עם כותרת פוסט בעברית"]
האמת, שה- A בהתחלה זה ליתר בטחון… נוצר דף ששמו:

A First Octopress Post

Hello World!

This is my first try for Octopress - the blogging engine based on Jekyll. Octopress is a “Static Blog Generator” and it looks very nice at first glance.
