my head tag is like this:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->
<link href="css/modern-business.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">
<script src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/modern-business.js"></script>
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="js/html5shiv.js"></script>
<script src="js/respond.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
</head>
if you want to try in local...try through localhost, or create a QA server and set the content and try.
We need respond.js for bootstrap 3 and it wont work in local machine if we just put it in js and append it to html in header. It will say access denied. it works only through server as IE has security restriction. :P
