Fix Cufón in IE9

Cufon have now released the latest version with IE9 support. If you’re still having troubles then make sure youupgrade to the latest version . If for whatever reason you’d prefer not to, the below fix should help you still.

————————————————————————————-

Just a quick one, after getting the new TD site working and released, I download the Internet Explorer 9 beta and saw that cufón had started to render completely blank. The cufón guys have been quick to get a fix out, and a new release is coming soon, but if you need a quick fix then here’s some info:

<!–[if gte IE 9]>

<script type=”text/javascript”>

Cufon.set(‘engine’, ‘canvas’);

</script>

<![endif]–>

Place the above in your HTML before all the Cufon.replace() calls.

Alternatively you can force IE9 to behave like IE8 (or 7):

<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=8″ />

<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=7″ />
