    Have you specified a doc type?

    Yes - the default.doctype.xml is the same as the example:

    ]]>
    ]]>

    Is it possible that IE9 is "stuck" in quirks mode? Hit F12 and select the correct mode in the toolbar. Does that help? Can you make it stick?

    Sure - if you manually kick it out of Quirks mode it is fine - but what happens if a user has their browser in Quirks mode is there any other way than a message (that many would not understand) - "If you are in Quirkes mode, then Press F12 and select ...........etc"
