Try this:
<!--[if IE]>
<div id="ienote">
<p class="warning">Compatibility Warning</p>
<p>This website was written to <a href="http://www.w3.org/";>World
Wide Web Consortium</a> specifications and should display properly on
the vast majority of Web browsers on the market today.</p>
<p>If you see rendering problems please contact the creator of the
browser that you used, and tell them you will discontinue use of their
product until it meets specifications.</p>
</div>
<![endif]-->
You may style the note above as you wish, for instance, like this:
#ienote {border: thick red outset;
background-color:yellow;
color:red;
padding:0.5em;
clear:both;}
#ienote p.warning {font-weight:bold;
font-size:larger;
text-align:center;}
I tried using "blink", but IE apparently doesn't support it -- even as a
style, which IS in CSS1. So it's useless in this context.
