IE8 Compatibility ?

[chrisc4]

Hello,

I include excanvas and es5 scripts but it seems that Chart.js not working on IE8

My head:
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.3.js"></script> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es5-shim/4.5.7/es5-shim.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es5-shim/4.5.7/es5-sham.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/excanvas/r3/excanvas.js"></script>

And chart declaration:
`var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
canvas = G_vmlCanvasManager.initElement(canvas);

        var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
        window.myBar = new Chart(ctx, {
        ...`

And i get an JS error on:

Object.defineProperty(this, 'data', { get: function() { return this.config.data; } });

According to the docs, IE8 is not supported because that browser does not support the canvas element.

V1 supported IE8. V2 does not because we make use of some other properties not available in IE8. IE9 should work.
