+This avoids two problems in IE 8. We should someday figure out why this is happening and tweak the JavaScript so this <meta/> tag is not necessary:
+1. When you perform a search and click the Toggle Highlight button, IE 8 adds a line break before the highlighted word.
+2. If you click the show/hide toc button, the tab crashes.
+These problems go away when you add this IE=7 mode meta tag.
