internet explorer 9 - How do I fix twitter-bootstrap on IE?

Question

The navbar doesn't seem to be working properly in IE. Here's a screenshot of it in IE.

I've been looking through many bootstrap-topics on stackoverflow.com, but the "help" they give people doesn't work for me.

After body tag:

<div class="container">
    <div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
            <div class="navbar-inner">
                <div class="container">
                    <a class="brand" href="?id=home">OnniServer.tk</a>
                    <div class="nav-collapse">
                    <ul class="nav">
                    <li <?php if ((isset($_GET['id'])) && ($_GET['id'] == home)) { echo "class='active'"; } ?>><a href="?id=home">Home</a></li>
                    <li <?php if ((isset($_GET['id'])) && ($_GET['id'] == donate)) { echo "class='active'"; } ?>><a href="?id=donate">Donate</a></li>
                    <li <?php if ((isset($_GET['id'])) && ($_GET['id'] == about)) { echo "class='active'"; } ?>><a href="?id=about">About</a></li>
                    <li <?php if ((isset($_GET['id'])) && ($_GET['id'] == staff)) { echo "class='active'"; } ?>><a href="?id=staff">Staff</a></li>
                    <li <?php if ((isset($_GET['id'])) && ($_GET['id'] == vote)) { echo "class='active'"; } ?>><a href="?id=vote">Vote</a></li>

You need to put <!DOCTYPE HTML> in the first line of your html.
