Here’s the font-face declaration (btw, I omitted @font-face below due to markdown code restrictions):
font-face {
font-family: ‘fontawesome’;
src:url(‘fontawesome.eot’); // IE9 Compat Modes
src:url(‘fontawesome.eot?#iefix’) format(’embedded-opentype’), // IE6-IE8
url(‘fontawesome.woff’) format(‘woff’), // Modern Browsers
url(‘fontawesome.ttf’) format(‘truetype’), // Safari, Android, iOS
url(‘fontawesome.svg#fontawesome’) format(‘svg’); // Legacy iOS
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
Is there any way to modify the above to force IE7-8 to skip, ignore, or hide this declaration without resorting to a conditional comment? I need IE8 skipped due to font rendering inconsistencies and I want to prevent an unnecessary download of the .eot file.
Thanks.
