Internet Explorer's Compatibility View breaks my site design

Question

My website design is looking fine in Mozilla. But when I try to run in IE, the design is not looking fine. When the compatibility view from Tools option in menu of IE is unchecked, the design is looking fine. But by default the compatability view is checked.

Can by default can we uncheck the compatability view or is their any other problem?

Answer 1

Even if you are viewing the website by yourself without using the Compatibility view in IE8, other users are still going to be viewing the website in IE6/7 and other browsers.

It would be best to fix the problems that are causing the design faults so that you are not working around the problem.

If you post your html markup/css that seems to be the issue, I am sure there are many people here who can help.
