title: why is IE11 choosing render mode: "IE7 Strict" and how to i make it use current browser?
body: <p>A website that was deployed has crashed, and it is because it is rendering it in "IE7 Strict".  This test was determined by the following code snippet:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var vMode = document.documentMode;
  var rMode = 'IE5 Quirks Mode';
  if(vMode == 8){
    rMode = 'IE8 Standards Mode';
  } else if(vMode == 7){
    rMode = 'IE7 Strict Mode';
  }
  alert('Rendering in: ' + rMode);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is an ASP Web application.</p>
  
  <p>I was thinking that if it were opened with IE11, it would render it in IE11.  It seems that is definitely NOT the case.</p>
  
  <p>How would i resolve this?  Do i have to add something to the config file of my WebApplication, or is an IE module that needs to be removed?  Are there meta tags i need to append to the MasterPage Header?</p>
