Using google chrome frame with Django

I am trying to use Google Chrome Frame in my Django app. Inserting <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1"> into the header doesn't do the trick.

Right now, this is what my header looks like:

<head>
  <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1"> 
  <title>Amuse Me</title>
  <link href='/static/style.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' />
  <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/jquery-1.6.0.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/base.js"></script>
</head>

Any suggestions?

Solution

  • Your page might be cached as suggested in quirksblog:

    Cache

    When I was doing research I used one test page and constantly changed the tags in the . The problem was that IE/Frame seemed to be caching not only the page, but also in which rendering engine it should be shown. Therefore a simple page refresh won’t help you here.

    Fortunately Twitter user jdalton came up with a solution: simply append a pseudo-query such as ?123 to the page URL. That bypasses the cache and forces the browser to re-evaluate the tags.
