I've also tried locally on IE10 (but using the dev tools to force IE8 mode).<br>> <br>> I've attached the screenshots to to show you - I tested IE8 in both XP and Win7 on BrowserStack (only the Win7/IE8 screenshot attached) and locally on Win7/IE10[IE8 Mode] and I can't reproduce and it seems that the code is working...<br>> <br>> So, I'm throwing this back out to the community - does anyone have XP/IE8 or Win7/IE8 and could test this and try to reproduce the collapsed accordion view that Nick is experiencing?
