it's no good using x-ua compatiable as you cannot set it to be
IE 11 conpatiable if it's et to run in IE 7 mode via the 
registry.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


That is new information I was not aware of. From
[url=http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff955275(v=vs.85).aspx]MSDN article
about X-UA-Compatibility Meta Tag and HTTP Response Header[/url] it seems it
_should_ work 'allways'. Are you really sure there were any new gotchas
introduced between IE10 and IE11? (I have W7, so cannot test.)

I am talking about updating the registry entry that PSPad
creates as based on
[url=http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee330730%28v=vs.85%29.aspx]MSDN:
Internet Feature Controls (B..C)[/url]

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Internet
Explorer/Main/FeatureControl/FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION
PSPad.exe = (DWORD)9000

10000 for IE 10 so I'm guessing 11000 will be IE 11 even though it's not
officialy out for Windows 7 yet.

Sure, this will be somewhat systematic fix for problem "[i]page looks different
in preview and when loaded from the server[/i]", but also could introduce new
level of complexity, like
- *was registry really updated?*
- [i]does my server alter headers differently than my preview environment is set
via registry[/i]
- [i]isn't my IE configured (eg. via web developers tools) to use different
rendering mode than PSPad?[/i]
- and probably others I overlooked.

What I wanted to remind is that (until PSPad setting works well enough) there is
seemingly well documented workaround for the aforementioned problem we can use
just now. I didn't want want to explicitly tell that workaround is better.
