   I have added an additional style sheet, OEAIE6.css and I have put a conditional use in the header.php file. It seems to do nothing in IE6.

   Do I have the correct syntax?

   Site: http://www.ourexcellentadventures.com
   Conditional code:
   

   <!--[if IE 6]>
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.ourexcellentadventures.com/wp-content/themes/OEA theme/OEAIE6.css" media="screen" />
   <![endif]-->

   Thanks.

   The syntax looks fine to me so I can only assume that your remedial CSS isn't quite right yet. If I'm not sure if I've targeted the CSS correctly, I normally add something like border:1px solid red; to whatever I'm working on at the time. If I see that border in the right place in the right IE version, I know I just have to play with the CSS some more.

   in your 'link' tag you did not put:

   type="text/css"

   I believe this is required

   miocene22 thanks. I added it below so it applies to all the css links in header.php.

   The only test I have for IE6 is browsershots.org and it looks like now it is working.

   Try IETester to use IE 6, 7 and 8 at the same time on Windows, but it can also be run virtually on OS X with VMware. etc.
