Setting X-UA-Compatible in Jazz team server
![](http://jazz.net/_images/myphoto/ca5c9d1feeb4c14ac81e36922233a6e9.jpg)
We work with Jazz team server using Web UI, and there is some problem. We assume it's because we use IE8 and there is the following tag appears in the HTML header:
<meta content="IE=9" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible">
<meta content="IE=9" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible">
We hope this http-equiv is configurable and could be set to "IE=8". Who could suggest us how?
Thanks in advance!

This meta tag is an instruction to IE to use a standards rendering mode no later than version 9, and is used to control which versions of IE we support. It will only have an effect in IE10 and later, and will not impact IE8 (it will use its highest supported document mode which is IE8 standards).

You can see what document mode you're rendering in by pressing F12 in IE8, and check the Browser Mode and Document Mode fields at the top of the toolbar. In IE8 it should be IE8, and IE8 Standards, respectively.
If this is what you see, then it sounds like it's not related to the document mode and might be a product defect. Can you describe the problems you're seeing?
