Hi,

Unfortunately, conditional comments are not working with IE8 beta 1
instance into IETester.

I have tried to correct this problem, but couldn't find a solution so far.

I will still work on it to find a solution for a future release.

Conditional comments are working ok under I5.5, IE6, and IE7.
