internet explorer 8 viewing problems on zen-cart

Hello, I have previously made a post at: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=108334 . I thought it was the product layout grid mod but I noticed a warning bubble that was new on my IE8, so i believe it is not the mod. I have just upgraded my Internet Explorer 7 to Internet Explorer 8... The bubble reads when at my site:
"Compatibility View: Websites designed for older browsers will often look better and problems such as out of place menus, images, or text will be corrected" (click bubble to run the Compatibility View) If the button is click then the page looks like it did in IE7... On IE 8 when at my site shows a torn page in half..So I installed the newest firefox and my website is still view the same as IE 8.. I am running zen-cart 1.3.8.. Not sure if this is a known issue or if this is new.

If this is not a issue with zen-cart please disregaurd this post...and if you can help me then it would be grealy appricatied....

But I am noticing the "torn page icon" on zen-cart main website as well... and other shops in the shop showcase... my site: pric edr ite4 u.com

Checked you site in FF3, IE7, Opera, Safari and Chrome

Site looks fine in all browsers and no "torn page" icon.

IE8 is still in beta so it might very well be a problem with the browser.

As clydejones said I would be aware that IE8 is only in beta stage and you don't need to worry about support for it until it is released.

Kind Regards,
Meshach

Re: internet explorer 8 viewing problems on zen-cart

Start by getting your template in order - you have quite a few errors on your pages - See: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pricedrite4u.com%2Findex.php%3Fmain_page%3Dindex%26cPath%3D1_5

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

When viewing my product list the images over the description go to the left instead of being centered... can anyone help me out on that (firefox) can be seen here? is it listed somewhere for the error page: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pricedrite4u.com%2Findex.php%3Fmain_page%3Dindex%26cPath%3D1_5
