CSS: Detecting Browsers/Browser Issue
I am having Browser issues. In Firefox, the design works great, but in IE 7 certain parts of the design are placed elsewhere on the page. Whats the easiest way to fix this? Isn't there a script you insert into the head that detects the browser, then loads the correct stylesheet?

You could use conditional comments.

<!--[ifIE]>
IE specific stylesheet
<[endif]-->

It's something like that, I never use them so I'm not sure if that's correct.

Yep, that's close but I'm not sure if a space is needed between the "if" and the "IE" or not.

Here is a page with great examples of doing this AND for targetting IE 6 separately from IE 7.

Peace...

It might not be the easiest way to fix it, but the best way to fix it is to fix the code so that it displays properly across the browsers, if that's possible. Can you post your code and a screenshot of the problem you're seeing? Maybe someone can look at it and offer some ideas.

Very true, indeed!
