copied!<p>In the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff410218%28v=VS.85%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">standards support profile for Internet Explorer</a>, the term "document mode" is used to refer to modes in which later versions of IE emulate older versions (see [MS-IEDOCO] section 2.1.2, page 8). </p> <ul> <li>IE7 supports quirks mode and IE7 mode.</li> <li>IE8 supports quirks mode, IE7 mode, and IE8 mode.</li> <li>IE9 supports quirks mode, IE7 mode, IE8 mode, and IE9 mode.</li> </ul> <p>Beyond the Document Mode settings, each browser engine can be used. So for instance, in IE9 you can render a page in IE8's engine, using IE9's document standard, so there are more combinations than you'd like to know about...</p> <p>You can observe these rendering settings in the browser. In IE9, press <kbd>F12</kbd> to see the developer's tools. There are two drop-down boxes at the top of the pane that allow you to set these values and re-render the page.</p> <p>Note that "compatibility mode" is not a separate document mode. Note also that the standards mode of each version may implement the different standards differently from that version's document mode in a later version (for example IE7 standards mode versus IE7 mode in IE8). See the other documents in the standards support profile for more information.</p> <p>Moreover, an additional document mode is supported in IE8, and IE9, namely "almost standards mode": If the page contains an XHTML or HTML Transitional or Frameset DOCTYPE declaration (p. 15), "the layout of images inside table cells" will be "handled the same way that quirks mode handles it." (p. 9)</p>
