Udo Schnurpfeil commented on TOBAGO-1081:
-----------------------------------------
There is some problem to implement this feature: There is no way to enforce the
browser to render the page in standard mode. See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/cc288325%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#Defaults
I've tested it and set the site into "compatibiltiy mode" by hand.
So, the browser IE8 sends an IE7 id to Tobago.
When Tobago now sends IE7-specific code to the Brower, but says "use IE8
rendering" this results in a broken page.
But the IE8 continues writing the IE7 UserAgent header.

> Project: MyFaces Tobago
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0-beta-2, 1.5.1
> Environment: Internet-Explorer 8
> Reporter: Matthias Wronka
> Assignee: Udo Schnurpfeil
>
> We encountered problems using the IE8 when the page is displayed in
> compatibilitymode (boxmodel,...). According to this (german) information:
> http://aktuell.de.selfhtml.org/weblog/kompatibilitaetsmodus-im-internet-explorer-8
> the browser-behaviour for compatibilitymode can be influenced by the webpage
> using metatags.
> We suggest to include this tags in the page-renderer, to be independent from
> some client-configuration.
