How can I force Internet Explorer 9 to use standards document mode? I built a website and I'm finding that IE9 uses quirks mode to render the website pages. But I want to use standards mode for rendering.

This makes each version of IE use its standard mode, so IE 9 will use IE 9 standards mode. (If instead you wanted newer versions of IE to also specifically use IE 9 standards mode, you would replace
Edge
by9
. But it is difficult to see why you would want that.)For explanations, see http://hsivonen.iki.fi/doctype/#ie8 (it looks rather messy, but that’s because IE is messy in its behaviors).
