Subject: Re: GWT and IE 8


We have the exact same situation. All you really need to do is create
a property provider override for the user.agent property in your GWT
module xml file. All I did was grab the user agent detection script
from the UserAgent.xml module in the latest 1.6 release and paste it
into my module file. This will result in you getting the IE6 user
agent detection for IE6/7/8...since IE8 can use an IE7 render mode,
for the most part your app should work/render fine.
