i have made a intranet website in jsf, primefaces. becuase of IE 9 defaults it opens in compatability view. i know i am supposed to use the tag
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
but it doesnt work instead it shows
HTML1115: X-UA-Compatible META tag ('IE=edge') ignored because document mode is already finalized.
i have used the tag as such
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<h:head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<title>Wan</title>
</h:head>
this is what it shows in the developers tools
<head>
<TITLE>Wan</TITLE><LINK rel=stylesheet type=text/css href="/Wan/javax.faces.resource/theme.css.jsf?ln=primefaces-redmond"><LINK rel=stylesheet type=text/css href="/Wan/javax.faces.resource/primefaces.css.jsf?ln=primefaces&v=5.1">

}
</STYLE>

<META content=IE=edge http-equiv=X-UA-Compatible>
i am guessing this is happening beacuse as mentioned in alot of other posts the meta tag has to be at the top of the head but i dont know how i could achive this.
how do i make my meta tag to be the first tag in my application
this is completely what the console in IE is showing
HTML1202: http://10.164.210.37:8080/Wan/welcome.jsf is running in Compatibility View because 'Display intranet sites in Compatibility View' is checked.
welcome.jsf

welcome.jsf
