While it’s always exciting to get the latest version of a browser, there’s no guarantee that you won’t run into any issues.

HREF is supposed to mark the anchor into a link.  Here’s a temporary solution or a general method to view your site in IE8:

Press F12

f12 switch to ie8

Your site should refresh:
