The file contains only a color of green for the text. When I run the page, text remains black. If I move the "link rel..." outside of the comment block it will then load text as green.
<!--[if IE ]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="_css/ie_only.css"/>
<![endif]-->
How is this to be written in order for it to load only for Internet Explorer?
Unless its a folder name...Remove _ from href and space after IE!!!
<!--[if IE]>
^^ space was here
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/ie_only.css" />
<![endif]-->
Remove the trailing space after IE
The issue is that I have IE 10 and as 'Alexander' has pointed out it does not support conditional comments. Thank you everyone.

I use this code to set style in ie8 and ie9, and this is not working.
<!--[if lt IE 8,9]>
<link href="~/Styles/ie8-9.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<![endif]-->
but this code worked properly:
<!--[if lt IE 8,9]>
<style>
body{color:red;}
</style>
<![endif]-->
how can I fix the first case?
ADD<!DOCTYPE html> in the top of your html page, it will work if not
Try this:
*::-ms-backdrop, body{color:red !important;}
lt means "less than". What you're looking for is a conditional statement that handles if the browser is equal to IE 8 or IE 9 so you need to do something like the following:
<!--[if IE 8]>
<link href="~/Styles/ie8-9.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 9]>
<link href="~/Styles/ie8-9.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<![endif]-->
I think the problem is that the path to your ie8-9.css is wrong. Check the console for any errors.
Maybe this article is interesting for you:
slash(/) vs tilde slash (~/) in style sheet path in asp.net
Furthermore, instead of
<!--[if lt IE 8,9]>
I suggest you to write
<!--[if (IE 8)|(IE 9)]>
if you want to use the stylesheet only for IE 8 and 9. I'm not sure if the syntax you are using is correct.
Maybe you also reached the maximum of 31 stylesheets per page in IE 8 and 9.
Don't test with such tools like IETester because they are not 100% equal to the real browsers. Go to modern.ie and download a virtual machine to test your site.

I am in the process of cross browser testing my site and of course IE is giving me the biggest headache. I know I have to use conditional style sheets but am unsure of where to put these in rails so they are rendered only if IE7 or IE8 for example. I have seen a example on stack overflow but he seems to be using HAML whereas I am not.
Has anyone encountered this issue before and if so what did you do.
Thanks
Assuming you're using the asset pipeline, the only solution I've found for this so far is to not include your stylesheets so that they get compiled into the one file, but instead just include your IE stylesheet(s) separately in the head tag of your layout file as you normally would.
<head>
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link href="ie7.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>
<link href="ie8.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
</head>
I am creating a template, and I have two different CSS styling sheets. One for IE and one for all other browsers.
I found a solution to target all browsers and IE browsers.
In my header I indicate:
<!--[if !IE]><!--><link rel="stylesheet" href="path/templates/thisTemplate/css/the-pack.css" type="text/css" /><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet" href="path/templates/thisTemplate/css/template_ie_lt_9.css" type="text/css" /><!--<![endif]-->
The style sheets work fine. Except that firefox shows the text <!--[if !IE]> at the beginning of the page
Can you provide me with proper alternatives? Or why is this text showing, even though is in the head element, and what do I need to do for this not to show?
Thank you
The end of a positive conditional comment is just <![endif]-->, do not restart a new comment:
<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet"
href="path/templates/thisTemplate/css/template_ie_lt_9.css" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
Wikipedia says:
<!--[if gt IE 6]><!-->
This code displays on non-IE browsers and on IE 7 or higher.
<!--<![endif]-->
So, maybe you should change if !IE with if gt IE 9?
More info: http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/conditionalcomments
This should probably be the code:
<!--[if !IE]><link rel="stylesheet" href="path/templates/thisTemplate/css/the-pack.css" type="text/css" /><![endif]-->
<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet" href="path/templates/thisTemplate/css/template_ie_lt_9.css" type="text/css" /><![endif]-->

An old question but more relevant than ever so another possible solution.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/style.css" media="(min-width:0px)">
<!--[if (lt IE 9) & (!IEMobile)]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/ie.css">
<![endif]-->
You can avoid conditionals by using the media attribute, this is not understood by older browsers so the file does not get loaded.
What's the best way in Drupal to load additional ie.css sheets for Internet explorer 6,7 and 8 ?
Should I add these lines on top of the page ?
I.e.
<!--[if IE 8]>
<link href="http://.../sites/all/themes/zen/zen/ie8.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
thanks
what you have will work only for ie 8. You need
<!--[if IE]>
link href="http://.../sites/all/themes/zen/zen/ie8.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
More information you can find here
http://drupal.org/project/conditional_styles is a project that allows you to define conditional files in your theme's info file.
If you take a look at: http://www.nrgi-raadgivning.dk/erhverv
You can see in the code, that if you are coming from an IE, it should apply a stylesheet...
The IE stylesheet is supposed to set the margin:0 at the dropdown menu ul, but i doesnt?
Any ideas to whats wrong?
From your markup:
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Files/System/ie7.css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/Files/System/ie7.css" />
<![endif]-->
However, the linked URL returns a "File not found message":
http://www.nrgi-raadgivning.dk/Files/System/ie7.css
Also, did you mean to link the same stylesheet twice? If so, you should be able to drop the second conditional comment.
Not found is a simple error irrelevant of the content within the CSS. Make sure your path (/Files/System/ie7.css) is right.
