I am creating a site using the new Twitter Bootstrap. The site looks fine and works in all required browsers except IE8.
In IE8 it seems to be displaying elements of the mobile version but stretched across the full screen of my desktop. I believe the problem I'm having is that Twitter bootstrap is mobile first. So for some reason IE8 is going for this option.
I also notice that the container class does not seem to be pulling in the max-width CSS properties as intended. Can anyone see what I've done wrong?

Just in case. Make sure you load the IE specific js files after you load your css files.
From the explanation it says that IE8 is the standard version for you and making
content="IE=edge"will render the page in the highest mode. To make it compatible change it tocontent="IE=8".Reference What does <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> do?
Use this solution
This string
<script src="js/css3-mediaqueries.js"></script>enable mediaqueries. This string<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap-ie7.css" />enable bootstrap fonts.Tested on Bootstrap 3.3.5

I've suffer the same problem in IE 10.0. I know this is not exactly the problem in the OP, but maybe it will be usefull for others.
In my case, I had an empty line at the beginning of the document:
If the blank line is between the DOCTYPE and the tag, the problem is also shown:
Once I've removed the blank line, and without the magic X-UA-Compatible meta, IE 10 has started to render the site correctly.
If you are using PHP and Smarty be careful with your Smarty comments because they will add those problematic blank lines :-)
Make sure you link the bootstrap source separately
If you use
LESSorSASSdon't be to greedy with compiling the styles. In my project I includedbootstrap.min.cssin my main style, on the top of the file - so there should be only one request for all styles.And because of that, the boostrap classes did not work properly. When added separately, works as expected.
