hi all,
might share this too. if you have a theme with transparent pngs or css stuff that doesn’t work with IE6 or below but you don’t want to switch completely to the default theme but rather apply some IE6 tweaks to your theme’s css and images then you might be interested in this little hack.
it describes how to use the ‘stylesheet’ filter to point to another style.css. so you can add an IE6 subdirectory to your theme and point there if it’s an IE6 visitor.
