Microsoft: Explorer 8 'complete and done'
InformationWeek | at | by Mike
Microsoft's preview version of the Internet Explorer 8 Web browser, released this week, isn't likely to differ much from a final version that's expected to be shipped later this year, according to a company official.
"The technical community should expect the final IE8 release to behave as the Release Candidate does," Explorer general manager Dean Hachamovitch wrote in a blog post. "The IE8 product is effectively complete and done."
Some users who have downloaded the Release Candidate, however, say the browser could still use some work. Posters responding to Hachamovitch's blog reported that IE8, in its present form, has, among other things, problems rendering tables and print views, and trips over tabs in some instances.
