X-UA-Compatible working in developer tools
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">
This is a very cool piece of code that forces Chromeframe or latest rendering engine. It can even be sent throught the http headers if you want the html to validate. But with this comes a doubt for me. I use IE8 in compatibility mode to test my websites for IE7 (either clicking the "sheet-of-paper" icon next to the URL box, or by activating "browsing mode" in developer tools). So my question is:
Does compatibility mode still renders webpages as IE7, or does the X-UA instruction blocks my intention?
Im worrying that I think ive checked my pages in IE7 and it turns out what im seeing it's not really what a native IE7 would show....
Thanks for your comments.
