Hi all

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but here goes.

I have found out that the bug when positioning markers on click on the
map in IE 8 can be "solved" by removing the doctype definition.

So by removing:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

On my site, the bug apperently disappeares.

The question is however, does this force IE 8 into compatibility mode,
thereby loosing the increased performance of the javascript engine in
IE 8?


So far I've been using the compatibility tag:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

But this probably forces the old javascript engine to render, or what?


I am confused, I would like the increased performance of IE 8, but I
am not sure how to get this when specifying doctypes?

Does anyone have any insight into what javascript engine is at work in
the various modes of IE?

Thanks in advance.
