Support for new IE

Question
-
Hi,
the new IE of Windows 8 on the desktop does not display the forum correctly when not in Compatibility Mode.
When an article includes code ("Include Code block" feature), the code is not shown propperly (Small "window" with just one long line of code). Switching on compatibility mode fixes this problem.
The interesting part is that the Metro Style IE does not show this problem. (But I didn't see a compatibility mode there and maybe it used the compatibility mode because I switched to it for the forums? Just wondering a little....)
Would be nice if that issue could be solved. Or am I the only one with that problem?
(Windows 8 CP and the RC are both showing this behaviour)
With kind regards,
Konrad

Hi Ed,
thank you for your reply. Its great that the team is aware of this issue already - that is all I wanted to make sure. (The forum works with the compatibility mode so it should be ok right now but when Windows 8 on ARM is available it could be an issue because user might be unable to switch to the compatibility mode.)
With kind regards,
Konrad

Welcome. They're working vigorously on this on all the apps... Wiki, forums, blogs, etc. They should be done with some of them soon.
Thanks!
