How does one target IE7 and IE8 with valid CSS?
I want to target IE7 and IE8 with W3C-compliant CSS. Sometimes fixing
CSS for one version does not fix for the other. How can I achieve this?
Target IE versions with CSS "Hacks"
More to your point, here are the hacks that let you target IE versions.
Use "\9" to target IE8 and below.
Use "*" to target IE7 and below.
Use "_" to target IE6.
Example:
.Example{
border:1px solid red; /* standard */
border:1px solid blue\9; /* IE8 and below */
*border:1px solid orange; /* IE7 and below */
_border:1px solid blue; /* IE6 */
}
Explicitly Target IE versions without hacks using HTML
