Nothing dramatic, but adding innerWidth / innerHeight support is probably
trivial, while dramatically increasing compatibility with current
non-IE-targeting HTML content like HTML5 demos.

Rob, is IE9 Preview's "Report an Issue" link pointing to this NG?

No... I only found out from the IE General NG that there was such a beast...
the IE Blog feeds seem to go around the world a few hundred times before
they get here.. (still no new posts in WLM)

Just followed the Preview Report an Issue menu to the Closed IE8 connection.

Zodiac,
sorry I did not answer your question. You know more than I. <sigh>

Regards.

I'm not Rob, but yes: it is:

I have absolutely no idea how a technical description of IE8 is supposed to
help someone who is looking to submit feedback on a IE9 preview version.

To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you quote all of the previous
message(s) in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.

Sorry, the conventions for quoting are different for each and every
forum/newsgroup/whatever. Will do from now on.
