 * Hi everyone,
 * I would like to modify and add conditional wrapper on the style.css to get something
   like that:
 *     ```
       <!--[if gt IE 8]>
       <link rel='stylesheet' id='wfact-style-css'  href='my_theme_folder/common/css/style.css?ver=3.6' type='text/css' media='all' />
       <![endif]-->
       <!--[if lte IE 8]>
       <link rel='stylesheet' id='wfact-ie-only-css'  href='my_theme_folder/common/css/mq-fallback.css?ver=3.6' type='text/css' media='all' />
       <![endif]-->
       ```
   
 * My problem is that it looks like I can’t override the style.css path as I get:
 *     ```
       <!--[if gt IE 8]>
       <link rel='stylesheet' id='wfact-style-css'  href='my_theme_folder/style.css?ver=3.6' type='text/css' media='all' />
       <![endif]-->
       <!--[if lte IE 8]>
       <link rel='stylesheet' id='wfact-ie-only-css'  href='my_theme_folder/common/css/mq-fallback.css?ver=3.6' type='text/css' media='all' />
       <![endif]-->
       ```
   
 * The first path is wrong and the second one right.
 * Here is the code I’ve done:
 *     ```
       function wfact_scripts_and_styles() {
         global $wp_styles; // call global $wp_styles variable to add conditional wrapper around ie stylesheet the WordPress way
         if (!is_admin()) {
   
           // register main stylesheet
           wp_register_style( 'wfact-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/common/css/style.css', array(), '', 'all' );
   
           // ie-only style sheet
           wp_register_style( 'wfact-ie-only', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/common/css/mq-fallback.css', array(), '' );
   
           // enqueue styles and scripts
           wp_enqueue_style( 'wfact-style' );
           wp_enqueue_style( 'wfact-ie-only' );
   
           $wp_styles->add_data( 'wfact-style', 'conditional', 'gt IE 8' ); // add conditional wrapper around ie stylesheet
           $wp_styles->add_data( 'wfact-ie-only', 'conditional', 'lte IE 8' ); // add conditional wrapper around ie stylesheet
   
         }
       }
       ```
   
 * Any ideas?
 * Thanks
