I know it is not recommended, but I am trying (for the first
time) to write specific code for IE (which has problems with Ajax).
I have tried to use comments in HTML ( <!--[if IE] etc.) but it
does not seem to work fine. WebObjects seems to just eat them,
and they don't event reach the client. Or is it because I am
using direct connect in development mode?
If one does not rely on HTML comments, how does one write browser
specific code?
Even when including comments in the response I ran into particular
problems with the IE conditional comments because of the inclusion
of the angle brackets that follow the conditional. One solution
that I found was to put in a WOGenericElement in the <head> of the
html of my page wrapper:
<webobject name="IEStyles"></webobject>
This was defined as:
IEStyles: WOGenericElement
{
elementName = "!--[if lt IE 7]><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=
\"url_for_stylesheet.css\" type=\"text/css\" /><![endif]--";
}
Essentially the elementName is whatever you'd normally put in to a
static html file for an IE Conditional comment, minus the beginning
and end angle-brackets (which get supplied by the
WOGenericElement), and with the quotation marks escaped.
I suspect WOGenericElement was never intended to be (ab)used with
such a bizarre elementName, but it did work quite nicely!
In case the formatting doesn't work properly here, I'd previously
posted this hint at <http://www.pyrusmalus.com/blog/archives/
