Julian,

It's definitely best not to build for IE, even if it is going to be your 
primary audience, simply because there's no way to make all the other 
good browsers out there imitate it's myriad of bizarre and unpredictable 
bugs.* Most of the time, you can build your site for good browsers like 
FF and just add a line or two of CSS for IE to correct its bugs. Let us 
see your page and we can suggest the appropriate fixes.

* The only exception to this is if you are building something for an 
intranet where 100% of the audience was using IE, but even here I 
wouldn't get too used to IE's way of rendering things.
