Emulating IE7 inside IE8…even Facebook does it..
Yep, that’s right, take a look at what Facebook is doing to force their user’s browser to downgrade to IE7 processing. I’ve used this trick and it’s beautiful for testing backward compatibility to IE7 even if your development system has IE8 on it…
<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=EmulateIE7″ />
Just add this line of code:
<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=EmulateIE7″ />
…to the
section of your page(s) and you’ll be able to emulate IE7 from right inside IE8 – Enjoy:)Cheers!
