Has anyone come across an issue in CSS where the IE7 browser picks up the IE6 hack (* html) and so renders the CSS assigned to IE6 rather than the CSS for IE7?
The styles in .maincontent are meant for Firefox and IE7 and the styles in * html .maincontent are meant for IE6, however the IE7 browser is picking up the styles in * html .maincontent and so is breaking the design. I have tried applying the * :first-child+html hack so as to apply styles only for IE7 however the browser is still pinking up the * html.
I am an in-house designer for a UK based travel firm and this code is for an enewsletter.
It appears that the IE7 browser has only started picking up the * html .maincontent styles today.
Any help would be massively appreciated, as I'm starting to tear my hair out.
If it is just that 1 block of code and you don't want to use an IE6 specific style sheet you could use *+html which targets IE7 but i would recommend you use an IE6 stylesheet.

I have used the following code:
.maincontent{
float: left;
width: 600px;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 25px;
background-image: url(http://images.itc-uk.com/websiteimages/ ... odybg1.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
* html .maincontent{
float: left;
width: 600px;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 12px;
background-image: url(http://images.itc-uk.com/websiteimages/ ... odybg1.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
