I have an app that is broke in IE10 but runs fine in IE10 Compatibility View. A quick google results in the

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8"> <!-- plus variations such as emulate, quirks, 7, 8, 9 --->

tag. Some MS documentation on the tag is here. If you press F12 you can see that it changes the document mode. I need it to change the Browser Mode to Internet Explorer 10 Compatibility View. Is there any tag that will do this?

If you want to set the compatibility mode in the browser itself and not in the html do the following

Open IE 10
Press the ALT Key to bring up the IE Menubar
Click on the Tools menu
Click on compatibility view setting.
Clicks check the box; display all the websites in compatibility view or
Add only the desired websites to the compatibility view

As shown in the image below. The website should then open up with IE 10 Compatibility view.
