Optimist Skin XTML Fix for IE8
Problem:  Why does your skin have issues with the menus? When I view the demo in WinIE8, the menus don't work properly. When I view it in Google Chrome, the menus work fine. I do not see this in other skins using the DNN 5 menu system.

Solution:
  The skin is older than IE8 and it's XHTML based, and there is some problem with SolPartMenu's JavaScript code in IE8 while in XHTML mode. Since we cannot change menu's code we can offer only this solution: Add this line:

 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
to the head part of the Default.aspx in the root install of DotNetNuke.
