IE8 not rendering correct height

[dpbklyn]

Hello and thank you in advance...

I created a site a couple of years ago and all was well. I just updated the site and as it turns out, IE 8 cuts off a good portion of the top of the site. The following code makes the site fixed width and centered on the page, but IE8 pushes everything up.

#global {
     background-color:#ffffcc;
     position:absolute;
     left: 50%; 
     top: 50%;
     width: 992px;
     height: 558px;
     margin-top: -279px; /* half of the height */
     margin-left: -496px; /* half of the width */
     border: 0px solid #000;
	 }

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

AS a quick fix, I move the whole thing down by adjusting the margin-top. This is not perfect as it also move the whole site down on the other browsers which were rendering correctly.

Thank you...

I am not sure, try to set hasLayout property in IE, but zoom CSS property.
