Tiago, Correct me if I am wrong, but in IE the only way to set standards mode is using DOCTYPE.
In IE8, you can use <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8">, but in older versions, you can't. Is there any other way? So I can support my IE8 users without DOCTYPE, but I won't be able to support IE7 users (in quirks mode, my application just renders completely wrong), even though its usage (IE7) is decreasing. Is this something known for you? On 23 fev, 09:27, "Tiago Silveira (Google)" <t...@google.com> wrote: > Hi Eduardo, > > I understand that.
