Description
Internet Explorer has come a long way since version 6. However, in order to take advantage of the standards-compliant renderer, we need to explicitly 'opt-in' by specifying the HTML doctype. Doing this avoids the need for traditional IE-specific CSS hacks and makes the development process much simpler.
The basic change is to add the following to geomoose.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
This will make IE use standards mode instead of quirks mode, so in order for this to work properly the CSS must also be updated to remove the IE-specific hacks and to explicitly set the 'px' units for CSS coordinates. I have attached a patch that does that.
