Thanks Klaus and Aaron,
Unfortunately in the site I am working on the JavaScript is broken up
into a number of files so I would need to make extensive changes to
prevent jQuery being called in IE5.x.
Instead I've made changes to ensure there are no problems regardless
of whether the scripts work or not. A better approach I think.
In a nutshell I was hiding some elements in the page - using jQuery to
set a class on the body to ensure the styles were only applied when
jQuery succeeded. This worked fine when toggling JavaScript on and off
in Firefox. Trouble arose in IE5.5 when jQuery worked occasionally to
set the class (and hide the elements) - but my secondary script to
reveal these elements when required failed every time. A lesson for
all of us :)
Conditional Compilation is cool though! I have used it to prevent sIFR
activating (buggily) in IE5.5.
Thanks again
Ollie
