IE9 support discussion
Should absolutely have official support now, as it’s in RC – we can announce that with 1.5.1
A few outstanding issues:
- Problem with :nth-child(-) failing (IE 9 failure)
- Test for clone is insufficient, causing failures (jQuery problem – Snover, rwaldron — John fixed)
Testing:
Install IE 9RC as default browser
Then install standalone IE 6 – 8:
