Hi John,
You can use this syntax to target all NON-MSIE browsers:
<!--[if !IE]> <-->
<style type="text/css">@import url("css/fix/non_msie.css");</style>
<!--> <![endif]-->
Use this syntax to target ALL MSIE browsers:
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">@import url("css/fix/all_msie.css");</style>
<![endif]-->
And this will target specific versions of MSIE browsers:
<!--[if IE 6]>
<style type="text/css">@import url("css/fix/msie_6_0.css");</style>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">@import url("css/fix/msie_7_0.css");</style>
<![endif]-->
CSS in the last three will not be seen by the validator, the first one
will (the non-msie syntax). This is important if you care about validation.
Additionally, this sort of technique has advocates and opponents. It
uses two semi-frowned-upon approaches:
1. Proprietary syntax.
2. Browser sniffing.
I use it because it also one of the most failsafe methods for targeting
the two type of browsers: Nice, standards-compliant, user and developer
friendly browsers...and anything made my Microsoft.
Hope it helps.
