User group meeting

This month's meet-up will be in Hamilton. We'll be gathering at The Winking Judge (we've met here before).

25 Augusta St
Hamilton, ON L8N 1P6

Lately our meet-ups have been fairly informal discussions of the latest happenings in Drupal, and we'll probably continue the trend. But some case studies would also be great (would love to see what other people are working on). Or if someone would like to lead something more topical, that would be great too.

Internet Explorer META element X-UA-Compatible

The topic of the joys of Internet Explorer made it into this month's chat at the DUG meet up, so I said I would post some helpful code.

function template_preprocess_html(&$variables) {
    $meta_x_ua_compatible = array(
      '#type' => 'html_tag',
      '#tag' => 'meta',
      '#attributes' => array(
        'http-equiv' => 'X-UA-Compatible',
        'content' => 'IE=Edge',
      ),
    );
    drupal_add_html_head($meta_x_ua_compatible, 'x_ua_compatible');
}

and if for some reason you would need to alter an existing version of it

function hook_html_head_alter(&$head_elements) {
    $head_elements['x_ua_compatible'] = array(
      '#type' => 'html_tag',
      '#tag' => 'meta',
      '#attributes' => array(
        'http-equiv' => 'X-UA-Compatible',
        'content' => 'IE=Edge',
      ),
    );
}

Thanks Rob!
