  Hello All,
 This thing just came to notice when we upgraded our Internet Explorer to
 IE8. The search box that populates using <meta-g> pulls up at the very
 bottom of the page in IE8.
 The same box works normally and shows up at the top of the page in IE7 or
 Firefox 3.X.X.
 In IE8, when I enable the compatibility mode, the box works normally & shows

  up at the top of the page.
 Although, I've not tried this solution, but I understand that adding this
 meta tag at the top of any html/jsp page should help circumnavigate this
 issue :
 <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

Hi there,

I suppose you need to add this meta tag to all the XWiki pages, so that
you're
sure that any page you'd load, the content gets interpreted as in IE7. To do
this, go to your installation's templates folder (/webapps/xwiki/templates)
and
edit the htmlheader.vm file to add, next to the other <meta> tags, this one.

Hope this helps,
Anca

 Any help...
