  Microsoft: More than 2,000 major Web sites still not fully compatible with IE 8
Time: 08:01 EST/13:01 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Robert Stein

The bad news: More than 2,000 highly-trafficked Web sites are still not compatible with Internet Explorer 8 and require IE’s Compatibility View support to display properly. The good news: That is down from about 3,100 sites a year ago. The new data is courtesy of a March 2 post on the Microsoft IE blog. A year ago, when Microsoft first released Internet Explorer (IE) 8, it got kudos for making its browser somewhat more standards-compliant than previous versions. But increasing standards compatibility meant more incompatibility, as many Web-site developers had tweaked their sites to take advantage of far less standards-friendly IE 6 and IE7 and weren’t in any rush to make changes to accommodate IE 8.
