X-UA-Compatible header ignored in IE when using respond.js

[kanetik]

I have a meta tag in my HTML, . Apparently, if that tag doesn't come early enough in the HTML, you get errors - and when I enable respond.js, I get this in my console: HTML1115: X-UA-Compatible META tag ('IE=edge') ignored because document mode is already finalized.

It seems that respond.js is injecting some styles directly into the DOM, and it's the first thing in the head, so it causes this issue. I cannot quite figure out where that's being done in the JS, so I can't fix it myself, or I would.

Thanks!

You're quite right! Try to move your META tag to the beginning of the head part - it should help )

Right, that would be the obvious fix, so that is, in fact, the first thing I did. However, respond.js injects that script block into the head in such a way that it becomes the first thing, no matter what. That I what I would like to have fixed.

This is a suitable fix. Thanks.
