IE browser automatically changed while page redirection - asp.net

I have done my project in asp.net with using webmethod concepts. I deployed it in live server. Clients are using windows 8 with IE 11/9. When users used my projects then IE version are changed to IE7. webmethod and json does not support IE 7/8. but when this page open then its automatically IE version changed and display 'JSON object' error. I tried to changed IE default version 9.but its automatically changed IE 7/8. how to change IE default version 9. what is the solution for my problem?

I feel you are talking about the compatibility mode. Try adding following meta tag in your layout page or master page.
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
The X-UA-Compatible meta tag allows web authors to choose what version of Internet Explorer the page should be rendered as.

Why does my web page render differently coming from my web server vs VS2010's web server?

I am using IE11 on Widnows 7. The server is 2008, IIS v7.0.6...
As you can see by the picture the dropshadow doesn't show up on the banner and the border on the calendar is not as dark.
Same code, same browser, different server.
Any suggestions as to what causes this and how I can fix it?
Any ideas on where to look?
Try this tag in the head section of your file
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
maybe the browser is rendering you page with a lower version than it has, this forces to IE to render the page with the last version posible
Also after adding that press ctrl + F5 in the browser to request all from server and no from cache

Is there anyway to force Browser mode to be IE 10 Compatibility View

My Web App has some problem on IE10 if not use compatibility view.
I do some research and found a solution that say i have to use
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />
So i try to use it but the problem was still remain.
Document mode was change to IE7 as I wish but Browser mode was not change to Compatibility view.
Is there anyway to force IE10 to use
Browser Mode: IE10 Compatibility View
on my web app?
or Is there any javascript that can do this?
Thank you in advance.
Now i just don't need to force browser compatibility view anymore.
I just found out that my web app problem was cause by .net framework browser definition issue.

ASP.Net Change Browser Mode for IE10

In IE 10, if you check the developer tools, you can see that there are two modes for the browser:
Browser Mode
Document Mode
By adding the tag below:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" />
One is able to force IE10 to render the page in IE9 document standards.
Is there a way that ASP.Net can force the browser to change the Browser Mode to use IE10 Compatibility View or any version lower?
I have an application that seems to break down with IE10, but trying the app in IE10 Compatibility and IE lower versions Browser mode, the application works perfectly fine.
Appreciate any help.
Update:
Posted screenshot of the browser mode and document mode.
If I added the meta tags above, I get:
Notice that the Document Mode is in IE9 mode as specified in the meta tag.
But my application needs to change the Browser Mode (IE10) to something like IE10 Compatibility Mode or lower. Using the current IE10 mode, breaks the application.
You can force the browser to use the most recent by:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EDGE" />
If you want to use lower versions, just change the number:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
Will render for IE 7. But you see to know that from the example you posted. Not sure what else you are asking though.

I am having a similar issue with my app not behaving correctly on IE10. I discovered that my issue is related to the ASP.NET browser definition files not recognizing the latest IE:
[Source: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2600100 ]
By default, ASP.NET uses sniffing technology for the user agent string
to detect browsers. The browser definition files cover a certain range
of browser versions. However, as the version numbers increase, ASP.NET
might not recognize new versions of a browser by using the user agent
string. In this case, ASP.NET might handle these versions as an
unknown browser.

Chrome Frame not triggering in IE9 on Wordpress

I have installed Chrome Frame and it works on some sites but not on mine. I have the correct code from the Chrome tag site
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1" />
<!--[if IE]><script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/chrome-frame/1/CFInstall.min.js"></script><![endif]-->
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?????????
I haven't seen this behaviour before, but I will take a guess:
IE has a config setting which tells it to turn on compatibility mode for local intranet sites (that is, sites on your local network, which would include if you're running your site on your PC for testing). This setting is often defaulted to being switched on, without the user realising it.
The setting triggers IE to override any X-UA-Compatible tags in the site, and always force the site into compatibility mode.
This may be causing it to also override your Chrome Frame mode.
So check your browser settings, and if you have this flag switched on, turn it off and try again.
Bear in mind that if your site is for use on an internal network, then this flag may be set for most or all your users. (and if it's for an external site, then bear in mind that most users won't have Chrome Frame installed!)
Is this meta tag within the 1024 first bytes in the document?

VS2010 IE renders different

So, I have an application that I test on my VS2010 virtual ASP.NET server, when I open it in IE on my local environment, everything renders fine, but whenever I deploy it to the external server, it starts to screw stuff up in IE (CSS and some jQuery problems). I have the same code everywhere, how is it possible to be rendering it differently? (I test them in the same IE version), everything works fine in other browsers.
It sounds like a compatibility-mode issue. In some cases, IE will jump into compatibility mode unexpectedly. This is often related to browser configuration.
Easiest way to preven this is to add the following meta tag to your HTML code:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge" />
This will force IE to always use the best available rendering engine, and prevent it jumping into compatibility mode, regardless of the browser config.
Hope that helps.
