I’ve now tested by copying the static HTML and putting it into a layout  
file. Unfortunately, it still causes the same problem. Works fine as a  
simple static HTML file and pulls the right CSS but doesn’t work through  
radiant.

How do people handle CSS files in Radiant? Do most people put them in  
the DB or just as a stylesheet in the filesystem?

this should work for IE 6 - it’s basically saying if less than IE 7,  
serve this stylesheet.

As to why it’s not working, i’m stumped as well.

I never use conditional CSS statements myself, but wouldn’t you need  
to set a rule to specifically apply to IE6? As it is, you’ve only got  
a rule for IE7 …

I keep my CSS files in the filesystem … old habits die hard, and I  
like having them available for easy tweaking. I store them in  
/public/stylesheets and call them via

Guys,

Thanks for all the help. Just in case anybody is interested, here is  
the  
code we ended up:-

\<![if !IE]\>  
@import  
“/stylesheets/style.css”;  
\<![endif]\>

```
<style type="text/css" media="print">@import

```

“/stylesheets/print.css”;

Thank you all  
Harvey

I’m a Ubuntu user and just use Gnome’s Gedit, which can edit files  
remotely, so it’s easier for me to point to external files. The  
highlighting sucks though.
