Hi,
Please use the IE8 Beta Newsgroup. You would have found this thread.
This was posted by someone else (Brendon):
So I've been trying to figure out how to fix this problem forever, and no
one
has been much help on any of the forums except peoeple posting that they
have
the same problem. It's pretty funny how I found how to fix it, but I'm sure
you want the fix, so here it is, Go to this site,
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads...d.jsp#6u10JREs
and down load the "Online Install JRE file" and install it and will 100% fix
the java problem for ie8 beta 2.
As for the story, if you still interested, I was having a problem with the
new google chrome. It didn't have any java plugins, so I was doing some
research that said this version will work with the google chrome, so I
installed it, and I have a feeling it would fix my IE8 problem, and it did.
No need to thank me, well you can. :-) Hope this helps.
Now I love IE8!
Regards.
