Force IE compatibility mode off using tags

Question

I am doing work for a client who forces compatibility mode on all intranet sites. I was wondering if there is a tag I can put into my HTML that forces compatibility mode off

Answer 1

This is due to the setting within IE Compatibility settings which says that all Intranet sites should run in compatibility mode. You can untick this via a group policy (or just plain unticking it in IE), or you can set the following:

Apparently it is not possible to change the compatibility view settings as a group policy but it is something that can perhaps be changed in the registry, this meta tag works fine for me, I had to make the required attribute work as part of a html form, it worked in chrome and firefox but not IE.

Here is a nice visual of what browsers support each individual html 5 element.

Notice the one common denominator Google Chrome, it supports everything. Hope this is of help
