12.0.5 OFLD garbage displays in IE8.

[NormanRouxel]

Problem: Garbage displays below filtered product lists in IE8.

Demonstration: Display the demo site / Necklaces page in IE8. Below the product list you will see garbage like:

TB!A,FT!GF,SX_ID!2,SX_IN!1,S_1_66082_0!,SO!1_3_4_0,FILTERPAGE!Necklaces.html,Action!Search

Reason:
SD 12.0.5 is adding code like:

<actinic:filter_input style="display:none;">TB!A,FT!GF,SX_ID!0,S_1_66095_0!,SO!4_2_0,FILTERPAGE!Brands.html,Action!Search</actinic:filter_input>

And IE8 is refusing to apply the style display:none to what it sees as an invalid HTML tag <actinic:filter_input>.

Workaround:
Go to Design / Library / Layout / Web Page Inner Layout / Section Page Body.
Around line 86 you should see:

<actinic:variable name="FilterDefaultInput" />

Replace with:

<span style="display:none"><actinic:variable name="FilterDefaultInput" /></span>

Please test and report if filtering / sorting still works.
