title: Almost all of bootstrap styling not working in IE8. Works fine in chrome and firefox
body: <p>I'm working on a classic .asp site and am using bootstrap for styling. 
  Everything is working fine in chrome and firefox, but almost all of the styling is missing in IE8.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using bootstraps carousel and modal and none of them are looking like they should. The carousel is just rendered as a series of images and none of the back/forward buttons are working. </p>
  
  <p>The modal isn't styled at all, and is just inserted on the page as a "box" with a border" (no backdrop, rounded corners or anything).</p>
  
  <p>I've tried a few more of the bootstrap library styles, such as tables and buttons and nothing looks like it should. 
  I know that the bootstrap.css gets included as some of the styling works (e.g button colors).
  The bootstrap js works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Is there anything additionally that I need to add to my html docs (doc types or what not) to make bootstrap work as it should in IE?</p>
  
  <p>I'm using bootstrap v2.2.2</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
