Bug #20663

IE8 compatibility mode can't be triggered properly
Added by Christian Zenker over 15 years ago.

Description
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" /> is used to trigger compatibility mode in IE8. But it must not be preceded by any other tags than meta or title.
Only solution is to include this in the head-tag, but it would be more straight forward to enable this feature in the page.meta - section.
Task:
- move meta-tags to the top of the head blog
- add a possibility to set compatibility mode

Modified version: no need to set this before the copyright.
Hey, had the same problem. I fixed it temporarily by adding this:
page.headTag = <head> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
This is not a fix but a workaround that leaves the problems as is. Check #21511.
Hi Joey,
well, for the frontend, there is a difference between the HTML that FE devs do, and the TYPO3 core in the backend. Again, it is a "temporarily fix" -- thus a workaround :)

The issue is very old, does this issue exists in newer versions of TYPO3 CMS (4.5 or 6.1)?
The meta tags have not been moved in 4.5.
I was a little amazed that I used this meta tag once, because I haven't used it since. So as this seems not to be an issue to anyone else, I'm fine with closing it.
