This is why I believed in the first place that star html hacks were possible or is IE8 just looking lest deeply inside these comments. Placing a comment between the xml prolog and doctype is throwing IE8 into quirks mode. http://css-class.com/test/css/selectors/ie7hacktargetingopera4.htm Have you ever tested IE8 without the vector thing with conditional comments or in other words have you removed from IE8 the ability for it to see (or use) conditional comments?
