Comment (by remohammadi):
According to [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-
us/library/ms537512.aspx#dlrevealed] '''<![if gte IE 6]>''' is a
downlevel-revealed conditional comment, but I'm not sure why that's used
here. I guess it was supposed to be <!--[if gte IE 6]>. The content inside
of the downlevel-revealed conditional comment block should be
parsed/rendered on IEs before 5, and non-IE browsers which will face some
unrecognized/non-standard tags. (from the msdn page: "''the comment
delimiters are treated as unrecognized HTML''" (in cold blood, they even
didn't dis-recommend this method :D)).
The only browser which will ignore the block would be the IE 5.* which
understands '''<!--[if gte IE 6]>''' too.
In [changeset:9463#file4] there are some changes on the header of
base.html. The downlevel-revealed conditional comment is including a
comment, a downlevel-hidden conditional comment and the "{% block
extrastyle %}{% endblock %}" too. If you are going to change the
downlevel-revealed to downlevel-hidden conditional comment, consider that.
I think nested html comment is not allowed.
