Hi all,
Recently, we did branding of a site and created browser specific style
sheets (style.css, style_ie6.css, style_ie7.css, style_ie8.css).
File sitemap.xmap contains code that applies the right style sheet to the
site depending upon browser type/version.
Each time we viewed the site using Firefox, style.css gets applied as
expected.
However, the story is different when browsing with different versions of
IE: style sheets are not getting applied as expected.
For example, if we first viewed the site using IE 7, style_ie7.css gets
picked up correctly. Next when we open the site in IE 6 and
IE 8, instead of getting their version specific style sheets they get
style_ie7.css.
Restarted Tomcat and viewed first with IE 6. Guess what? All subsequent
viewing in IE 7 & IE 8 get the style_ie6.css.
Decided to experiment this with the stock theme: Kubrick. Results were same
as above.
Please check this out yourself by viewing some existing or test collection
with Kubrick theme in different IE versions.
Found an earlier discussion on this issue in Feb'09 by Eric Luhrs

No one has mentioned any solution other than the hack suggested by Eric.
Checked with him recently and he still hasn't found an
alternative.
Hoping to hear some expert ideas. We really need to get this fixed for our
user base.
