IE10 Weird rendering?

Question

I'm loving the touch friendliness of IE10, but it does seem to have a lot of rendering errors - for instance gmail is totally messed up for me, some other sites too.

 

Is this happening for other people? I guess it's just one of the reasons why IE10 isn't out now :)

Answer 1

To add to this:

It also fails to render the carat on text boxes in the correct position when the text is longer than the box width.
Flash (on the desktop IE) sometimes causes the rest of the page to not render, and once, after closing a page with flash on it, the flash item (on the now-closed tab) would briefly appear when switching tabs.

Otherwise I'm quite impressed with the performance of IE10, it is very responsive.

Thanks for your interest in this. I'll report through that soon, just wanted to let you know that I had an issue with the limited use link you posted - It seems to be a link to login at the microsoft mail server. However I decoded the redirect url part of it and that allowed me to sign up successfully.

I am also having these rendering issues, the carat in textboxes is the most noticeable bug. When a textbox is full the carat is rendered way of to the right of the last character. 

Also various other elements on web pages render too far to the right, as if the screen width is being calculated incorrectly.

Perhaps easier to see in screenshots:

I am using the Windows 8 developer preview on this PC and it actually seems to happen in any browser I try.
