~ overflow ~

It’s been a long time i use this trick but i never got time to share it, so here it goes,

there are many different ways to have an specific css command to be interpreted by a IE or FF, but they are complicated some are obscure , other requires you to do a separated CSS file etc etc

here’s my trick:

.someclass {
width:250px; /* this is for FF */
//width:265px; /* this only works on IE */
}

so on FF it will ignore the commented line while IE will override the previous value with the one on the commented line; For some reason this works all IE versions i was able to test, somehow IE really loves to read the //’s , regular /* */ comments are ignored by both browsers.

that’s all.
