Hey Georg and others,
So, I would like to learn more about the above @media filter... If I
ever use it again, I want to be sure I am applying it correctly.
I have read that using @media will hide from these browsers:
• Netscape 4.x
• Mac IE 4.01
• Mac IE 5.0
• Win IE 4
• Konqueror 3.0
Questions:
1. Does anyone have a link to an (official) IE7 website/web-page that
talks about this filter?
2. Is this filter an acceptable alternative to conditional comments?
3. Could someone elaborate a bit more on this statement:
> put after all other styles so not to interfere with other @media rules
> if there are any
What happens if I do have other @media rules? If I did have other
@media rules, would I just combine them into one @media rule and put at
bottom of CSS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)
Thanks m8s,
Cheers,
Micky
