title: How to open local HTML document in IE compatability mode?
body: <p>I created a quick and dirty HTML file to demonstrate an issue I am encountering in IE compatibility mode.  When I open it in IE8 from my desktop, it opens in standard mode.  I need to be able to switch it to compatibility mode, but the icon for that disappears when I am viewing a local HTML document.  What's up with that?</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: None of the three proposed solutions has resulted in the compatibility mode icon showing in IE8.  Instead, I have put my code into an .aspx page and executed it through Visual Studio.  Since it's originating from localhost, the browser thinks it is a remote document and is displaying the compatibility icon like I wanted.</p>
  
  <p>However, if anyone can get this to work without having to do that, I am still open to ideas since launching a web app isn't really the ideal solution for me.</p>
