OK http://www.gozz.com/temporary/dangerous/styled.cfm - explanation
on the page which also allows you to have the page give you CSS
intended for another browser.

To achieve the effect my client wants in a variety of browsers, and
to ensure other  browsers get navigable content, and to have one HTML
page that works with every browser, and to make the best attempt at
futureproofing the site : I feel I have to serve different
stylesheets based on navigator.userAgent.

Indeed, I am talking about the artistic design itself. Maybe that's
not important to nyou and your clients, but it's of upmost importance
to this particular client of mine, so it's important to me ... I was
provided with Quark documents and instructions to make it happen. I
enjoy trying to satisfy pickiness.
