I am creating a website where my HTML will be embedded within a page that I have no control over. I would like my page to be rendered in IE9 standards mode. In order to do that, I have my first page embed a second page using an embed tag in order to allow the second frame to be in standards mode. This trick is discussed here:

Unfortunately, depending on the version of Internet Explorer, this results in either an extra HEAD request or an extra GET request. This is discussed here:

I would like to avoid these extra requests. Does anyone know of a way to do so?

Thanks.
