AngularUI - Compatible browsers

angular-ui, angular-ui-bootstrap, internet-explorer-8

Solution

Many of the AngularUI directives do work correctly in IE8 provided you don't configure them using the custom element option. The problem is that IE8 ignores any elements that aren't standard HTML, which obviously blows that approach out of the water.

Use attribute approach instead. For example, instead of:

<tabset>
    <tab ng-repeat="tab in tabs" heading="{{tab.name}}"></tab>
</tabset>

Use:

<ul tabset>
    <li tab ng-repeat="tab in tabs" heading="{{tab.name}}"></li>
</ul>

Problem

I tried to open the AngularUI website (http://angular-ui.github.io/) in IE8. UI was not rendered properly in IE8(working fine in latest version of chrome/firefox). This led me to search browser compatability of AngularUI modules. A discussion in the groups pointed me that AngularUI-bootstrap module does not support IE8( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/angular-ui/8L0739rxdes) But could find the info for other modules listed below. UI-Utils UI-Modules NG-Grid UI-Router So the question is, Are these modules compatible with ie8. If yes, is there a desire to continue support in the future.
