I do the same. I don’t support IE. It’s too non-compliant for my likes and I don’t have enough development time to cater to the SINGLE browser that has issues with basic Javascript.

I choose NOT to deal with IE.
I usually just send them to a simple web page with a continue button saying:
“This web site will not work with IE. Use a good web browser like Firefox or Chrome.”

Agree with Edd.

Just include all of the scripts and stylesheets using php.

PHP get_browser(null,true); function gets the browser name, so…

$b=get_browser(null,true);

if ($b[browser]==’IE’) {
echo ‘IE ONLY’ ;
}

This could be achieved with php though easily enough, right?

Conditional comments save so much time. And takes away the need for any CSS hack. Hacks are bad!
