This is odd, and I hope I explain it correctly.
When I debug locally with VS2008, IE8 looks like FF and Chrome (minus the obvious). It works well, and I'm happy.
When I use IE8 with our IIS6 box (Win2003) or Cassini, buttons aren't aligned, javascript errors occur, and some other CSS anomolies occur: Table cells missing colored borders, div elements having different dimensions by 2-3pixels.
If anyone has come across this, please let me know - It's completely baffling me

IE8 runs in different modes depending on if it's visiting a site running on localhost vs another server. It's weird, I know. I've run across this issue before as well. Use the developer tools (F12) and check which mode (Quirks, IE7 Standard, IE8 Standard, IE8 Compatibility) the browser is running in.
