IE9 Beta First Look

[NikatKimber]

I use Firefox as my main browser and I like it. The truth however is that FF is not as compatible as IE on many web sites.
When it comes to filling any forms on the web, FF falls apart and I have to go to the IE once more. It is also unable to use CAPTCHA and do searches on many sites.

Have not had these problems. What version were you using?

I need to figure out how to put a separate search bar.
It is quick. I like a separate search bar, I have not found it yet.

No, it somehow gets the tables mixed up. A table or button that IE shows to the right, FF shows it below. A CAPTCHA or a password, search, forms this sort of thing. It is annoying, I have to copy the link from FF and start IE and paste it to start over.

That sounds like a CSS issue to me.

What sites specifically?

A good example is Oklahoma Central Credit Union the "pay bills" page. The column on the right overlaps a little over the column on the left.
When you click on the date box in the left the right opens up a calendar window that is pretty messed up with blank spots and text superimposed on the calendar.
Everything looks normal on IE8 and now on IE9B.
