Don’t worry. In no time your customer will probably be paying extra for an update to the site: the text must be changed to read This site is optimized for IE8

Don’t get mad, get even:

“This site is optimized for IE7”

But doing this will probably trigger the IE hidden block bug, so beware…

There should be a comment after “for IE7″, as in

“…for IE ”

This worked far too well…
