    We have a time card system that seems to be built on an older version of IE, we use something called ie7 to ie6 emulator. How can I write a more reliable app that will trick IE into thinking that its an older version but only enabled when accessing a specific URL when the time card site is visited? I know normally that some web applications will not work based on the ie7 version when ever you visit a site, the site will just pick it up as an older version.

      I believe you are referring to quirks mode, http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/quirksmode.html[^]

        Almost but it is possible to make it in C#.NET and not in html or asp. The application we are currently using is found here : IE7_to_IE6_Emulator[^]

          I think I may have sort of found a solution or work around. I could use a webBrowser control in a form that redirects only to that site and then when it checks the 'FEATURE_NATIVE_DOCUMENT_MODE' then it would load the IE7 standards mode by checking the value of ' MyApplication.exe"=dword:11170" ' This is the only thing I could think of after reading the http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2008/03/18/webbrowser-control-rendering-modes-in-ie8.aspx[^]
