IE7 compatibility mode does not work in DNN 5.6 - browser

IE7 compatibility mode does not work in DNN 5.6
How do i get this meta-tag to work, so that IE9 runs as browser mode IE7 compatibility and document mode IE7?
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

There is an MSDN article that is having full detail about this topic. Also there is another blog entry here that says, "It seems like the X-UA-Compatible tag has to be the first tag in the section."

Upgrading MathJaX from version 2.5 to 2.6

Well basically I want to upgrade MathJax in my site from version 2.5 to version 2.6. I have installed a copy of the 2.6 version in the server and then I am trying to call MathJaX linking it to the server. However, I get an upleasant message that the server cannot see the local.js file. It does the upgrade to 2.6 but it calls it from the cdn. Also, the equations are not stable. That is, if someone clicks on them well they go up and down for a while.
The configuration looks like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax
2.6-latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS_HTML,
https://myserver.com/MathJax/config/local/local.js">
In the mean while, the old version of 2.5 is still on board the server. Should I delete this? If I switch back to 2.5 version then everything is OK.

No GWT page loaded in Opera under Linux

I was testing compatibility of various browsers on various platforms with my GWT application.
In Opera 12.16 for Linux x86-64 there is no GWT application displayed once the page has finished loading. I cannot see any errors in Console or Errors sections of developer tools.
I tested if this is also case in other GWT pages and I tried
http://samples.gwtproject.org/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html
and
http://samples.gwtproject.org/samples/Mail/Mail.html
with the same result.
This problem is however not in Windows 7 64 bit (Operat version 22).
Does anyone else have these problems? Is there a way to solve it?
In 2.6.0, GWT disabled the opera permutation since Opera decided to adopt webkit in new versions of the browser (Opera-13). So if you run a modern version of opera it picks up safari permutation, otherwise you have to enable opera permutation by yourself.
In the other hand, Opera announced to stop linux development in Dec-2013, so your version seems to be running the old engine
So your problem is that your opera version is not running webkit, enable opera permutation in your module.gwt.xml file:
<extend-property name="user.agent" values="ie8,ie9,opera" />

Where can I download JRE 7u5 plugin for any browser?

I was looking for a good exploit to use as my final project for security class so I though for JRE 7u5 bug to exploit using Metasploit.
Where I can download that version of plugin for FireFox/IE/Chrome, for whatever browser?
I Googled for hours now and I can't find a link =?
While the older downloads are not listed any more, I think you'll find that they follow a well-defined naming pattern. For example, look at the download links on this page and modify as needed:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7u9-downloads-1859586.html
Not sure about Chrome, but I believe installing JRE on Windows adds it as browser plug-in for IE and Firefox. If not, follow these instructions.

Is there a web-kit or gecko based Webbrowser library on wp7?

The original browser doesn't support css3 and HTML5,It even cannot display jQuery Mobile demo and Ckeditor.Is there any replacement for this?
There's an update (codename Mango) on the way to bring IE9 and its new Javascript compiler to Windows Phone 7. IE9 is an implementation of HTML5/CSS3. I have not special knowledge but the rumors on the web:
http://gizmodo.com/5724937/windows-phone-7-rumored-updates-copy--paste-ie9-html5-and-silverlight-coming
wp7 still runs IE7 which was made when HTML5 and CSS3 were not even though about!.
You could check out Opera Mobile as of now.
for jQuery mobile demo, you could refer browser support here: http://jquerymobile.com/gbs/
cheers

Cross-Browser Extensions API?

There are tools for developing cross-platform browser plugins.
Are there any similar tools or APIs for browser extensions (i.e. toolbars, or filter systems like AdBlock)?
Yes, but unfortunately each one has significant drawbacks.
Kynetx supports IE, Firefox, Safari, and Chrome, but extensions are dependent on the Kynetx extension to work. In addition, Kynetx apps are built using an odd, proprietary Kynetx Rules Language. There is no cost to use the Kynetx platform. UPDATE: Kynetx has shut down
WebMynd supports IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and is in private beta. From what I have been able to determine, WebMynd is a very small San Francisco-based startup that is still getting off the ground. Their library is standalone and provides a Javascript API, and they use a monthly billing model. UPDATE: company pivoted, now for mobile, trigger.io
Crossrider supports IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari. Recently out of beta (as of June 2012), Crossrider is free and offers a jQuery-based development experience. Publishing methods for your extensions include an embeddable website widget, download links, and a customized windows installer. However, CrossRider does not allow you to self-host your plugin files. UPDATE: As of 27.09.2016, CrossRider is terminated and it will be available only until 27.10.2016.
KangoExtensions supports IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera. Seems very new and bleeding edge, like Crossrider, also looks promising. UPDATE: No updates in over two years.
IE and Firefox seem to be the hardest to develop for, although Mozilla JetPack aims to greatly simplify Firefox extension development.
There is also very young framework for cross-browser development called BabelExt, from the author of Reddit Enhancement Suite. I like that it builds restartless Jetpacks for Firefox.
See more on github, https://github.com/honestbleeps/BabelExt
Mozilla has recently introduced WebExtensions API. For now it's actually almost a copy of Chrome Extension API (but some APIs aren't implemented yet). It has been introduced just a few days ago so it still has a lot of problems and unsupported APIs. But if you're interested in writing extensions for Chrome, Opera and Firefox you should pay attention to the state of WebExtensions API.
UPD 27.10.16. There is a page Are-we-WebExtensions-Yet which summarises the current state of WebExtensions. By their current estimate 44.99% extensions from Chrome store should work in Firefox.
ExtensionMaker is another one project related to cross browser extensions development. It is not a real framework. It is kinda IDE that allows you to design basic extensions.
Of course, it is not suitable for a serious projects. But I like the idea.
Full featured version is available for free. There is just small limitations on the way of using generated extensions.
Yes, the browser extensions development company has a framework-one code for all browser views
