Your statement is actually incorrect; these latest changes did not break any 
functionality that I know of. In fact, it even fixes the problem where the 
related functions would display above the content and you'd have to scroll past 
the list. It's technically better now.

That being said IE 8 isn't respecting the padding at all so things are 
squished. Since IE 8 is *three* generations behind the current release we don't 
support it. That being said I'm feeling courteous today so I'll try to find a 
Windows XP VM and see what I can do.

Hello,

it's sad to say, but we actually just doesn't support IE 8. I know that there's 
no newer version available on Windows XP, but this system is also unsupported 
since April.

Our support for IE is based actually on workarounds contributed by volounteers. 
Of course, proper displaying of PHP.net in new browsers is on of our goals, 
however IE8 isn't new and current versions made great progress.

I'm considering changing status of your report to "Won't be fixed", but of 
course if anyone wants to contribute some fixes/workarounds for IE8, we will 
accept them and commit into repository.

Best regards,
Maciej.

Description:
------------
The latest php.net site does not display properly in Windows IE 8 (and perhaps 
any IE). As a web developer, I use several browser for testing. It can be an 
inconvenience when I happen to be using IE to have to open a different browser 
just to see php.net. That's become a real nuissance as I have heavely relied on 
php.net since 2000. That's 14 years now. ;(  Would love to see this site work 
in IE.  I have tried with both Compat mode on and off. Am I possibly missing 
some other setting to make php.net display better in IE?  Thanks and sorry if 
this is the wrong place to post this.  Thanks! -Nicole

Test script:
---------------
n/a

Expected result:
----------------
Proper display of php.net in IE 8.

Actual result:
--------------
Terrible display of php.net. Can't use it in IE 8.
