Broswer feature detection technique to detect internet explorer browser version when view in compatibility mode.

Hi Team,

Need to detect internet explorer browser version when viewing in compatibility mode.

I was trying to use feature detection for the above and so used modernizer(js library) but unfortunately, it is not working. Is there any way through which I could do this feature detection.

Appreciate your response.

Thank You

When using compatibility mode, IE will behave EXTERNALLY the same (same headers/posts/gets are sent out).
When IE _RECEIVES_ the data from the server, it will use an OLDER INTERNAL engine to compile the data.
Therefore, you WILL NEVER know what's going on behind the scene (except if you're satisfied to lump Compatibility mode with IE7 detection)
