Microsoft has announced that Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) beta 1, is being targetted for release in the first half of 2008. It will be designed and built for a broad range of customers including consumers, enterprises, partners, web developers, and others.
IE8 is the next generation web browser designed for the new web, making it safe and easy to use web services. It is being designed and built with a broad range of customers including consumers, enterprises, partners, web developers, and others. IE8 will also deliver advancements to our broad customer ecosystem and will enable Web Developers, Designers, and ICPs to develop across platforms and versions, boost productivity, and provide richer user experiences – all without breaking the web.
One of the goals of IE8 is to support the right set of standards with excellent implementations without breaking the existing web. And last week, IE8 reached a core milestone: IE8 in standards mode now correctly renders the “Acid2 Browser Test”. Acid2 is a test that determines how well a browser works with several different web standards. Successfully rendering Acid 2 is an important landmark for IE8 as it highlights the interoperability, standards compliance, and backwards compatibility that we’re committed to for this release.
