lefty1953 Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 The only question I have is: Is it faster loading than IE7? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lefty1953 Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Ok I am trying it out and found 1 glitch so far. When I try and use IEspell with it it throughs an error and closes the IE tab I am in. It does reconnect to the site but every thing I typed in is lost. Hope I didn't misspell anything cause I wont check it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JSKY Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Yes it has a couple of bugs. You have a hard time coping something. It's not sure what your doing.And some sites don't come in just right using it. Take a look at the "BestTechie" Logo at the top of the pages. The Logo offsets down from the rest of the logo field and onto the controls for the "calandar" and "members" Jeff may have to reset the Logo to fit right. Found a couple of different sites that do the same. But IE8 is it still an earlier Beta release. So keep that in mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like the BestTechie logo is missing and also unlike IE7 when I scroll down on a page it does it right away and with IE8 it wont let you scroll down until the page is completely loaded. It keeps jumping back to the top of the page. The start page for IE8 doesn't have all the Pic's in it either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lefty1953 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I realized I am no BETA tester and dumped that junk. It has a long ways to go to make a person think it is better. It was jumping around and giving me so many Access Denied errors it is not worth running. Hey and my IEspell works again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
