Barney could you expand on this? I currently use either an IE if
statement with the CSS in the header if it is really minimal, one or two
lines - and if larger, an IF statement that includes an IE specific
stylesheet, such as ie6.css. Anything that is more efficient works for
me, ideally I would "dump" all the IE stuff into a single stylesheet
along with the IF/ELSE stuff as well. -Bob
