Govpress in IE under compatibility view. #100

Closed FrankHablawi closed 8 years ago

Hello!

If you look at any site running Govpress in IE under Compatibility View, it breaks. Homepage title is visible, menus disappear, and widget areas break.

This is even true of http://govpress.co

Since this theme is designed for government use, I would suggest this issue be addressed - typically compatibility with a broad amount of older browsers is vital.

Thanks!

I've done some reading on this. If we explicitly set a compatible version, it should disable the compatibility view:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=10">

I'm going to commit this, but will require some browser testing before I can close this ticket out.
