Override for <td> in IE7 - css

Client.css hosted on another server.
td { background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; }
Can I override this for IE7?
I’m trying to remove the background property on this element. The background forces everything in IE7 to be invisible on <tr> and <td> elements, as I don't think it allows this in IE7.

For IE7 only
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/client.css" />
<![endif]-->
For IE 7 and LOWER
<!--[if lt IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/client.css" />
<![endif]-->

Sure. You can use the !important rule, and conditional stylesheets:
In your <head>, add:
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7.css">
<![endif]-->
And then inside ie7.css, simply create the following CSS rule:
td { background: #fff !important; }

In my stylesheet I can override the specific client style be defining the particular class and then the td which will override the clients style.
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="http://domain.com/client.css"/>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="mystyles.css"/>
inside my linked stylesheet
.class > td { background: #fff; }

Specific css setting for IE only

I have the following setting and only want to have this setting for IE only.
Is there the way to do so
.login-space {
padding-right: 30px;margin-right: 20px;
}
Thanks

One solution is create a style sheet for only IE and put that selector in it and add the style sheet in head section like this
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie-style.css" />
<![endif]-->

CSS conditional problems all IE vs the other browsers

How to write the sintax on the css property like:
.example{
/*all the browsers except IE*/
font-size:100%;
/*that's on all the IE syntax I need to add like a condition*/
font-size:200%
}
That's a simple code I know, that's only to test it, but not on the html, on each property in a class, id or tag on the css.
In ie6 it's:
#test{ _color: blue}
in ie6 and ie7:
#test{ *color: blue}
ie6, ie7 and ie8:
#test{ *color: blue\9}
But how to difference between all IE and the other browsers?
Anyone can help?
Use conditional stylesheets
Target IE 6 ONLY
<!--[if IE 6]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie6.css" />
<![endif]-->
Target IE 7 ONLY
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7.css">
<![endif]-->
Target ALL VERSIONS of IE less than IE10
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="all-ie-only.css" />
<![endif]-->
Target everything EXCEPT IE
<!--[if !IE]><!-->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="not-ie.css" />
<!--<![endif]-->
Since IE10 ignores conditional comments you can try this solution.

conditional css is not working to target IE

i'm trying to create border radius for some divs and want them to work on IE too so i'm tryin to use CSS3 PIE. I want to target browsers less then IE9 but it's not working at all
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../assets/css/ie.css"/>
<![endif]-->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../assets/css/main.css"/>
the last one is the main stylesheet but when i open ie.css and save any style it doesn't work at all. The page loads without any stylesheet On IE as it's not attached to the html page
Any solution ?
You need to have the ie.css overwriting the main.css
try
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../assets/css/main.css"/>
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../assets/css/ie.css"/>
<![endif]-->

Consolidate CSS IE calls

Is there a way to call IE conditionals from within CSS? I want to avoid calling a long string of IE css files from my code.
<!--[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]-->
<!--[if gt IE 8]>
<link href="ie-gt-8.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
and would like to have one call
<!--[if IE]>
<link href="ie.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
and have the conditionals within the css file. Is that possible or is Paul Irish the way to go?
I tried applying the "advanced rules" suggested in this article
#column_right {
float:left;
width:250px;
margin-left:-250px;
[if IE 6] ie6: 100%;
[if lt IE 6] lt-ie6: 100%;
[if lte IE 6] lte-ie6: 100%;
[if ! lte IE 6] not-lte-ie6: 100%;
}
#footer {
clear: left;
width: 100%;
[if IE 5.0] padding: 10px 0px;
[if IE 5.5] margin-bottom: 40px;
}
[if IE 5] .box {
width: 200px;
padding: 100px;
margin: 100px;
}
but this doesn't work for me. I tried something basic, like
[if IE 7] background-color: red;
[if IE 8] background-color: yellow;
Use the conditional code to add a class to the HTML element. Then use that class to select elements only for the version of ie.
<!doctype html>
<!--[if lt IE 7 ]> <html class="no-js ie" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7 ]> <html class="no-js ie7" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8 ]> <html class="no-js ie8" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if (gte IE 9)|!(IE)]><!--> <html class="no-js" lang="en"> <!--<![endif]-->
.ie8 body {width: 98%}
.ie7 body {width: 100%}
.ie body {width: 50%}
In ie8, the body element will have 98% width, in ie7, 100% width, and in IE6 and lower, 50%.
No. That is not possible. But it is possible (sometimes) to code for all IEs and consolidate your code. Conditional comments don't exist in IE, but there are hacks however I would not recommend these, ever!
You could also try loading the CSS dynamically on the server side. Get the user agent from the request object, if they are using IE version x, append CSS files 1, 2, 3 concatenated together. Just make sure that mime type of the response is CSS or plain text...

CSS not affecting that is written for IE browser only

Why I am not able to apply an css that is for IE browser only,
I am trying to do it as below with in-page css block.
<style type="text/css">
<!--[if IE]>
body a {font-size:12px;text-decoration:none;}
<![endif]-->
<style>
Reference link
The way to do it is around a css file reference,
Example:
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="all-ie-only.css" />
<![endif]-->
You might be able to do this too:
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
body a {font-size:12px;text-decoration:none;}
<style>
<![endif]-->
But it has to be in the html page and not in a css file.
because conditional comments can't be in the style tag. Everything within <style> must be css. Try to wrap the style tag with the conditional comment.
