I have just started doing webdesigning I use photoshop and dreamweaver. I have seen that professional websites carry different css for ie 6 and ie 7 and one for all others. Why?
what are the different things I should keep in mind while designing for internet explorer 6 and 7 and how is it different from designing for other web browsers. Are there any other web browsers that like ie 6 or 7 which require different css ??
can you give a link where i can read more about it

    basically internet explorer renders websites differently in a bad way. internet explorer 6, 7, 8 all have their little quirks. For the most part other browsers like opera, firefox and safari render sites in a similar fashion.

    then main gripe is that internet explorer has a different box model. you can read about common issues with IE here:

    there are however lots of scripts/tools that can help you out:

    on a side note please don’t support ie6, it is by far the worst browser to work with and many companies have stopped supporting it.
