	So I know there's a javascript code out there that'll detect your screen resolution and load in a specific stylesheet based on the resolution, but is there a similar one for detecting browsers? I'm working on a layout for someone and it's doing some really wonky things in IE, and I think it might just be easier to build a whole new stylesheet for IE.

	You can use conditional comments or use PHP to determinate the browser. (ie. if it's just IE you can have an if() statement to load an IE stylesheet and if it's not IE then it will load the regular stylesheet)

	You can also do something like this: Just say it's the width of something that is different, in your css you'd put: width: 100px !important; width: 101px; By default the browser will use the latest one, but the !important tells non-IE browsers to use that one. I'm not sure if that would work for specific thing but I use it sometimes. So, if you used that, in IE it would use 101px and in other non-ie browsers it would use 100px (this is only good if it's just a couple of little things that are different.. if your stylesheet is totally different you'd probably want to use something else)
