angularjs ng-controller in IE8

Question

I testing angularJS app on IE8, and noticed that using version 1.1.5 of angular ng-model directive works well in IE8, but ng-controller does not. I tried everything I could find on the web and nothing.

<html xmlns:ng="http://angularjs.org" id="ng-app" ng-app><head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.1.5/angular.min.js"></script>
<!--[if lt IE 8]> <script src="js/json3.js"></script><![endif]-->

Hope you have looked at docs.angularjs.org/guide/ie

On Internet Explorer 8 you need to specify an ID like this:

<div id="ng-app" ng-app="" ng-controller="YourController">

To work around some of the HTML-processing peculiarities of Internet Explorer 8, you will - at the very least - have to change the HTML in a few places, to add an ID="ng-app" information to the root container of your AngularJS-Application. In addition, you have to make sure that your <a> contain valid href-attributes.

Thanks. As you can see I had included id="ng-app". And all of my links inside the ng-controller are ok. This is so frustrating..
