IE if clause not working? 1

[1DMF]

Hello,

Can someone tell me why this isn't working..

<style type="text/css">
        .selwid {
            width:123px;
            }
            
        <!--[if IE]>
        .selwid {
            width:143px;
            }         
        <![endif]-->
</style>

is the syntax wrong or something?

"In complete darkness we are all the same, only our knowledge and wisdom separates us, don't let your eyes deceive you."

"If a shortcut was meant to be easy, it wouldn't be a shortcut, it would be the way!

Hi

You can put the conditional comments only where HTML comments are valid. So move it out from the [tt]style[/tt] :

<style type="text/css">
        .selwid {
            width:123px;
            }
</style> 

<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
        .selwid {
            width:143px;
            }         
</style> 
<![endif]-->

lol I was just coming back to say , worked it out, it was syntax!

can't put the condition within a tag must be parent node!

and you beat me to it!

nice one Feherke
