hi there just a quick question,

im doing a site where ive got a style sheet for firefox and ie7 and a sepearate one for ie 6. and the code i used for forthis switch to happen looks like this...

Code:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title>Hutton &amp; Co. (Ship Chandlers) Ltd.</title>
    <link href="css/stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <!--[if lt IE 7]>
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/ie6.css" /> 
<![endif]-->

now for the quick question. If the ie6 style sheet i created was empty ( contained no stlying what so ever. Will the ie6 browser display my site with no style at all?

because when i remove all the content from the ie6 syle sheet it still displays it has if its reading the style sheet. Is it using the other style sheet instead?

cheers

It's set to read the style from the external stylesheet.
So then if you have it as empty, it should be reading nothing, therefore having 'no style'. But there are always browser defaults.

I would try defining all the tags, but not having any style for them.

eg

Code:

.h1{}

Or something like that. I'm not sure though.
