IE 8: X-UA-Compatible doesn´t work?

• I believe the order in which it appears matters. Try making the META element the first child of your HEAD element.
  

• I've also encountered the same problem. I've tried making it the first child of the head - no go, i've also tried setting it in the http header using php and still it doesn't work.
  

• Thanks Joe, it works great! :-)
  

• The order does matter.
  It needs to be read before any stylesheets.
  

• Thanks it's was very helpful... But the order is important at least on my script... if i put the tag in other order it's doesn't work correctly...
  

• superb, thank you, this even fixed my sifr issues. all hunky again.
  
  But mass adoption of this 'hack' ( and I dont really mean it is a hack, per se ) renders IE8 obsolete :)
  

• sorted. Many thanks!
  

• It looks like this problem still exits. I'll pass the word on.
  

• Thanks for the tip ! This meta didn't seem to work until I made it first child of the head tag... Now everything's workin fine !
  
  :)
  

• we have tried several methods all teh above work but for seo link juice passing the tag that is prefered after many months testing for debt terms is
  

• Putting the meta tag for emulation as first item will definitely solve the problem
  

• When all else is lost the future still remains.
