IE8 Beta 12 places need attention

Two days ago deliberately installed a ietester, to facilitate testing, installed after the use of IE8 found that there are two places need attention.

1. Ie5mac's filters are also valid for IE8 beta version 1
2. IE8 Beta 1 does not support truncated ellipsis, which means that the text-overflow:ellipsis in CSS3 is not supported ;

About the first article may have little impact on everyone, anyway, mac with IE is too few people, the advantage is that we can write a special CSS style sheet for IE8. If you don't know Ie5/mac filter friends can copy the following code into their CSS stylesheet, and then write a style sheet called "Ie5mac.css". But you can change this ie5mac to Ie8win.

1. /*\*//*/
2. @import "Ie5mac.css";
3. /**/

If the first one is a bad situation, then the second one is obviously very bad. We all know that no matter how text-overflow:ellipsis; Also CSS3 has been determined, IE was originally to support this feature, why in the IE8 and give up this support? About the truncated word omitted this I have always advocated should be solved by CSS, this will maintain the integrity of the XHTML code information, but also easy to change the style, but Firefox has not been able to support this feature so I am very confused, that is CSS3, and is a very practical effect why not early support it? But at present IE8 is only a beta version, hope that the future IE8 can continue to support text-overflow:ellipsis;
