Hi Paul,
There was no markup associated with the original post, so after David's
post:

"If by "it works" you mean that IE 6 and 7 get a red background while
other browsers get a blue background, then you'd be right."

I assumed the attribute included *both* classes:
class="ie-only foo"

So thanks for the heads-up, *now* it makes more sense. :)
