Nivo Slider in IE8 Links do not work arrows not displaying. #355

In IE8 the links for the images do not work. None of the other fixes have worked. Using JQuery 1.9.0.min

I tried the CSS hack from another ticket as well as the hack that places the slider code inside the slider div.

https://github.com/gilbitron/Nivo-Slider/commit/df397fece20b34da84a1d65cac9dde70829acada [Make links work in IE]() -- Didn't Work

Also the arrow images are not displaying.

Works fine in Firefox.

Thanks, P.

Once I put the browser into compatibility mode the links and arrows started to work properly. The meta tag must be toward the top of the tags. <meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
