  1. Hello Ahmned:

    I am not a professinal at this, so I aplogize for my ignorance. I built my own website, and it all looked great until I saw it all messedup on IE9. Very upsetting. Why can’t MS just leave well enough alone? Anyway, I don’t understand where is the “head tag” – is it in my JS files or the CSS files?

    Thank you for takimng the time to answer this.

  2. Thank you Mikko. Where do I find this, in the JS files or the CSS files or every page of html?

  3. There is also an alternative fix in case somebody does not want to update to the latest cufon-yui.js file. We just need to call Cufon.set(‘engine’, ‘canvas’); before the Cufon.replace() calls. We can wrap it within the IE9 conditional statements to ensure that its understood by only IE9.
