Which solutions have you found that didn’t work?
They didn’t exactly match my problem (people had distortion problems but elsewhere…)
One was to use the “force regenerate thumbnails” plugin – which had no effects, except I had to recreate all my thumbs with non standard preview sections again.
Another one was a little snipped of php code which was said to tell the browser use IE7 mode. It should be entered in a HTML widget – this didn’t work either.
Others suggested to change the height attribute “auto” to a distinct value manually – in hatch this is already the case…
I also found that some of my previews didn’t have the exact 300 x 200 pixel size, but something like 298 x 200 or 300 x 201, so I changed them all by hand – but to no effect….
That were pretty much my trials during this day…

You should first ensure each webpage you want browser-compatible successfully validates through W3C’s Validator.
Nice tip – this should be the job of the professional theme programmers 😉
Do you really think the incorrect use of <dl> <dd> is causing IE8 to hiccup?
I’m not a programmer but to me this doesn’t sound like this…

Webpages are formed on HTML elements. If those elements are incorrectly formed, webpages will break. Internet Explorer isn’t a forgiving browser, unlike Google Chrome.
I completely understand your point.
It doesn’t help a single bit with my prob I’m afraid.
