For a given site, X-UA-Compatible is your friend, per my previous reply. But I've not had to deal with it in anger. MS docs: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288325(v=vs.85).aspx Chrome Frame docs: http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/chrome-frame-getting-started/chrome-frame-faq and searching for excluding certain versions, which I remembered as being possible, suggests that MS's docs are false in places: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3413629/emulate-ie7-for-ie8-but-not-for-ie9-using-x-ua-compatible and you need to use comma-separation for the lists to work, so you would want: X-UA-Compatible: IE=6, IE=8, IE=9 to skip IE7. Seems like a horrible task to go update web-server configs for all the sites, for each MSIE release to test if a newer release works any better. -Phil _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
