This is due to Internet Explorer 8 interpreting web page code differently than its predecessor. This could be likened to a non HD Ready television being unable to display High Definition programmes or a non digital television not being capable of receiving digital transmissions once analogue signals cease to be broadcast.

We would therefore advise that you check the customer experience on your own web site using Internet Explorer 8. If you feel that you are experiencing these display exceptions, please contact us and we will investigate further and advise accordingly.

In the meantime, simply press the new Compatibility View button if you see display problems on a website. It’s located next to the Refresh button on the Address Bar.
