I am trying to target a class for IE. However, since the boilerplate template has changed this no longer works..

.myclass {
 //do something
}


.ie7 .myclass {
 ///do something

 }

This is what’s in the new header of the boilerplate template.

<!doctype html>
<!--[if lt IE 7]> <html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8 lt-ie7" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>    <html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>    <html class="no-js lt-ie9" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if gt IE 8]><!--> <html class="no-js" lang="en"> <!--<![endif]-->

    We do not recommend you target IE9 as it has all the marking of a modern browser, which is why we do not have IE9 specific conditional class. If you still would like to, you can use:

    <!doctype html>
<!--[if lt IE 7]> <html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8 lt-ie7" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 7]>    <html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 8]>    <html class="no-js lt-ie9" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE 9]>    <html class="no-js lt-ie10" lang="en"> <![endif]-->
<!--[if gt IE 9]><!--> <html class="no-js" lang="en"> <!--<![endif]-->

    Note that IE10 will not recognize conditional comments.
