I want to use IE8 as a WebBrowser control in a C# application. How can I disable "quirks mode" and force IE into standards compliance (as far as it is implemented)?

In Firefox and Opera you can determine if your browser is in "quirks mode" by checking page info. Using document. compatMode , will tell you the mode you are in with most browsers.
Chrome Quirks is a fun extension that allows you to inject pre-loaded effects or custom CSS onto any webpage you visit. Developers can quickly and easily edit CSS and test ideas out. This extension appeals to the curious and the pranksters who can't help messing with their less tech-savvy friends!
In computing, quirks mode is a technique used by some web browsers for the sake of maintaining backward compatibility with web pages designed for old web browsers instead of strictly complying with W3C and IETF standards in standards mode.
If you don't want to use the registry key technique, you could insert the following tag:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />
The "content" attribute forces rendering in various modes.
