As you may know, we've been having technical trouble with the display and functioning of the site when viewed through Internet Explorer 8 and earlier versions. We're very pleased to announce that, thanks to the hard work and perseverance of our colleagues at University of Sydney Arts eResearch, we've resolved these problems, and the site now works in IE 8. It's not quite as good as it looks in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or IE 9, but it's functional. Thanks for your patience, as we worked on fixing the problem. We look forward to lots more feedback from those of you with IE 8 (which is still very common in corporate environments). If you can upgrade to a newer browser, you'll have a better experience with the Dictionary. You can do that for free: Firefox, Safari, Chrome. We are all breathing a sigh of relief, and we can now get on with the hard work of getting ready for next month's regeneration of the site, with 20 new articles, and hundreds of new entities, images, captions and links. Stay tuned!
