This is a cool technique. One minor caveat. It will not work on older browsers that don't support CSS.

Unless someone threatens your life or your livelihood, browsers that old (and we are talking VERY old) are NOT worth supporting. I enforce a minimum of Win IE 5 on my client's sites, and they have yet to have any major complaints. On the Mac side I won't even support IE 5, as it is an end-of-life, unsupported product. If a user tries to use my site with it, I explain that fact and give them a list of free, better alternatives. Again, no one complains.


I will not kill myself or cripple my sites for people who are too lazy to upgrade their browser once every four or five years! Of course, if your target audience is a government bureaucracy, you may have no choice.
