I can’t seem to get my site to redirect IE 6 and 5.5 to my alternate .CSS file. They just never load it. I am a little new to CSS. Can’t I somehow enter my alternate element styles for IE 6 and 5.5 within my main style sheet with “*” ?

Here is what I have in the head section of my index.asp :

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html lang="en">
<head>


<link rel="stylesheet" href="tex.css" type="text/css">

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ietex.css">
<![endif]-->
</head> 

Is this correct? I’ve tried so many combinations of that. I tested the site on IE6 and it never loads ietex.css. The site is http://www.readingnowerie.com and the main style sheet is “tex.css” at the root. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Have you viewed you source? It appears that you have nested 4 <html> tags in your document.

I missed that! Thanks. I took those out. I had them in there from my linked files. But the IE 6 problem still remains. Is there another way to check for IE 6 and 5?

Thanks again for taking the time to respond.

A good piece of editor software would make writing your code world easier.

Good luck, Drew

It appears you can use them within the head tag, though, and include an external CSS file.
