Why does FireFox Load ALL file.css?

[dennishall]

Hi:
I have two external css files being loaded based on the following code in the head of my php file:
<![if !IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="standard.css"/>
<![endif]>

<![if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7.css"/>
<![endif]>

<![if IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="standard.css"/>
<![endif]>

I am testing in FF3.5 and IE8.

IE8 picks up standard.css in normal operation and ie7.css in compatability view.

The problem is FF picks up standards.css, ie7.css, then standard.css again.

Does anyone know why FF is doing this?

Your code was wrong. Should be

<!--[if gte IE 5.5]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="standard.css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7.css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="standard.css" />
<![endif]-->

It should be work. Good luck..

I had same issue with IE6. I tried to hire some web designers too but no one could realize the problem. Lastly I thought of using a new custom template. Thanks zero13 for your help.
