I have a website that having some applets, which works without any issues in IE6-IE9. But when I tried in IE10 and IE11, it seems to be buggy. All the pages where not loading properly.

After some searches in google, I found adding the following will solve the problem :

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" />


But even after adding this, my problem was not resolved. When I add the above meta tag, IE's document mode was set to IE9 but the browser mode was still IE10/IE11. If I add my site into compatibility mode it works as good as in IE6-IE9. But whenever the machine accessing the site changes, I need to add the site into compatibility mode.

I would like to know whether I can change code from the server side to solve this compatibility issue of my web site.

My web site's server side uses jsp pages containing some applets and servlet. And the site is deployed in Apache Tomcat

Because of the meta tag your put on your pages, MSIE is running in Internet Explorer 9 mode, even if its a newer version. This usually does the trick with CSS, but other items such as plugins, javascript, and other activex dont really follow the rules.

Your best bet is to fix the site so it works for MSIE10+, which in all liklihood means it will work for chrome, firefox, safari and opera since MSIE10 is actually a really good browser.
