I understand if I study it, but it's not immediately understood when I read
it. :)

I will get Developer Toolbar. Not I have not really tried. I just throw them
away, because, understand then, requires several days on studying. Days that
I don't have now. I have use zoom for example, but I haven't use clear. I
have use height and overflow, but I just realize it doesn't work to shrink.

And I will put inside conditional comments, however, since I'm always adding
and removing lines of code, is just not practical.
At the moment the code just needs to be "clean up" and sorry for that,
because I know it's harder do read.

Thanks. I will give it a try.

I do agree. And I see no harm on using zoom when placed on a proper IE
comment.
Thanks a lot,
