Emulate IE7 on IE8

If you have IE8 and want to render your sites ON IE7 for compatibility testing you can simple add the meta tag below into your document.

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

It’s a really neat and convenient trick for testing. It would’ve been neat if it could do the same for IE6; but I’ve stop supporting IE6 in my code and design since last year. It’s just way to much hassle for a small demographic… I mean come one! Firefox is only 7.7mb and the Chrome installer is only 500+kb!
