My usual strategi involves identifying the browser by means of the excellent browscap.ini maintained by Gary Keith: http://www.garykeith.com/browsers/downloads.asp

When doing so, I usually just test to see if the browser is Internet Explorer version “less than 6″, and if so, hand it the “IE box model stylesheet, otherwise I just hand the browser my CSS2 compliant stylesheet.

This method can easily be used to serve many different stylesheets to many different stylesheets, or if need be, dynamically create the stylesheets on the server, based on the user-agent.

My 2px.

I'll try to post a proper entry about this some time soon.</p> Client-side vs. server-side CSS filtering is certainly something that deserves more discussion.

I've seen where Opera forgot a 3rd tier linked .css. Plus it seems one larger style sheet may compress better & perhaps be faster for the browsers' rendering than several smaller ones.</p> <p>Morgan, you make a good point. I can go pro & con on both sides of the fence, but Simon gets first swing :)</p> IMHO, I don’t agree with the “surgical connection strategy” of linking CSS sheets via another sheet.

Morgan, you make a good point. I can go pro & con on both sides of the fence, but Simon gets first swing :)
