Yes, IE doesn't handle attribute selectors.
However, I'd still be tempted to use it. The only thing that happens is that
IE6 doesn't display the icons. Graceful degradation. Users with newer
browsers will get a better experience, but it'll still work with the older
browsers.

There is a nice article [1] that can show you how to automatically
style links with little icons depending on the extension of the file
it points to if you are interested.

Hi Matt, I was intrigued by the simplicity of your use of:
a[href $='.pdf'] {
padding-right: 18px;
background: transparent url(../../sitegraphics/outofit.gif) no-repeat
center right;
}
etc., but when I checked it in my (standalone) IE6, it failed. Is that to
be expected? (standalone IE6 gives 'funny' results sometimes). If so,
it's dead as a useful tool for me.
