Moves when hover in Compatibility Mode

[oenablx]

Hello,

I'm having an issue during compatibility mode. My boxes move to the left but when I get off Compatibility mode everything works perfect.

Is there anything wrong in the css that I'm doing?

<div class="dashboardTabs">
  <ul>
    <li>
      <div class='icontabs'></div>
    </li>
    <li>
      <div class='icontabs'></div>
    </li>
    <li>
      <div class='icontabs'></div>
    </li>
    <li>
      <div class='icontabs'></div>
    </li>
  </ul>
</div>

.dashboardTabs{width: 910px; margin:15px 0 30px;}
.dashboardTabs ul li{list-style:none; position: relative; display:inline;}
.icontabs{float:left; width:155px; height:159px; background:url([URL unfurl="true"]http://www.enablx.com/images/tab-box5.png);[/URL] margin:8px 13px; background-repeat:no-repeat}
.icontabs:hover{background:url([URL unfurl="true"]http://www.enablx.com/images/tab-box6.png);[/URL] cursor:pointer; background-repeat:no-repeat;}

Thank you,

Assuming by Compatibility mode you are referring to IE. And Since you don't state which version, I'm going to assume IE8:
Compatibility Mode is basically IE7 mode. Which may have some differences to later IE's in the rendering engine.

I tried your code, and while it shifts slightly to the left once, it doesn't do it again after that, and the rest seems to work fine. I don't think its worth it do go out of your way to debug such a minor issue, specially since it works everywhere else without the shift.

If you have them available, check your web site statistics to see how many visitors actually use an older version of IE. There may be no reason to worry about compatibility view if your older IE audience is tiny. Only 5% of my visitors use IE7 or earlier. They are not worth the bother.
