Another possible strategy... would be to go ahead and use the CSS 3 attributes you think will enhance your site. Then use conditional statements to include an IE Stylesheet, after your original stylesheet.
Basically using this method, you'd add an additional stylesheet to fix any problems that might arise. An example of what this would look like is below: <!--[if IE 7]> <link href="css/ie7.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen"> <![endif]--> A practical use for this could be using the "text-shadow" attribute. Maybe the text-shadow looks awesome in Firefox... but in IE 7 the text might be illegible when the shadow does not display. So you could use an IE stylesheet to change the color of the text to one that works without the shadow. Here's a link to a good article that explains IE conditional statements: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/condcom.html Also if you're interested in learning some more general knowledge about making your site work in various browsers, here are a few links on graceful degradation & progressive enhancement. http://www.sitepoint.com/progressive-enhancement-graceful-degradation-basics/ http://www.alistapart.com/articles/understandingprogressiveenhancement/ hope that's helpful!
