More IE web developer resources
It's yet another blog about Microsofts dreaded Internet Explorer.
This time I wanted to direct my readers to a great article on the Opera Developer Community, Supporting IE with conditional comments.
I've know about using conditional comments to target IE for some time, but this article not only gives good practical examples, it's floushing with links to valueable sites that discuss the issues in more detail.
One such site was On having layout which explains in details many of IE's uglier quirks, what triggers them and how to get around them.
The article also contained a link to the Multiple IE installer. I had found a standalone version of IE6 previously which didn't work and I ended up folding and going with Microsofts recommendation which is to download a 445MB, time-limited, Windows XP virtual PC. That's right, if you want to test your site in a previous version of Internet Explorer, Microsoft recommends you download an entire operating system to do so. The multiple IE installer is a life saver, and contains versions of IE all the way back to IE3.

Rules: Paragraphs and linebreaks are automatically created (two or more linebreaks create a paragraph). Linebreaks between code tags remain linebreaks. Block tags cannot be enclosed by inline tags. Red attributes are required and green is optional.
Use "<" and ">" for "<" and ">". Enclosing PHP code in <code> tags will highlight the code (i.e. <code><?php echo 'hello world'; ?></code>).
List of valid tags:
<blockquote title="" cite=""></blockquote><cite cite="" title=""></cite><a href="" title=""></a><strong title=""></strong><em title=""></em><code title=""></code><abbr title=""></abbr><acronym title=""></acronym><ol title=""></ol><ul title=""></ul><li title=""></li>
