Howdy,

I'm in a situation where I would like to use @media all { ... } and
@media screen { ... } around blocks of CSS in a large collection of
style sheets.

Test page using @media all { ... }:

<http://jsbin.com/alugiv/1>

Test page using @media screen { ... }:

<http://jsbin.com/alugiv/2>

I've tested in IE6-8 and it appears that those browsers ignore the
media queries (or, they follow the rules) and load all styles found
within the MQ blocks (and, the cascade does not appear to be
affected).

Question: My test page is simple, so maybe I'm missing something
obvious (or some sort of corner case) ... Is what I'm seeing actually
true? Do old IEs not mind @media screen/all { ... } syntax?

Where would I go to find official docs that state weather or not this
is the case? I'd like to use this on a production site, but I kinda
want to confirm that what I'm seeing in my tests is really going to
work for me via a live site. :)

Can anyone confirm or shed light on official documentation somewhere?

Thanks!
M
