Overriding IE=EmulateIE7


I have a purchased theme for Wordpress that automatically sets the X-UA-Compatible to IE=EmulateIE7. This, is not allowing some of the more complex custom scripting to function properly.

Since this purchased theme will be used across my company, we do NOT want to modify any of the core scripts, so when we do updates, nothing reverts back.

Can I simply add a X-UA Compatible to IE=edge to override the IE7 Emulation, or is this just wishful thinking?


Solution

  • HA... simply writing a second meta X-UA tag and setting it to IE-edge does override any previous meta tags.

    IT'S A MIRACLE!
