Rather than using JavaScript for browser detection, try Microsoft's own built-in hack: conditional comments. They will work in all versions of IE regardless of whether JavaScript is enabled or not and every other user agent in the entire universe will just see a comment.

I had the same problem with margins in IE. I fixed margin problems in my css by some hacks, but I couldn't force IE 5.5 to output it right. So, I used browser detect script[1] and created file called ie55.css with right margins for IE 5.5. In the element I included the following lines:
if(browser.isIE55 == true)
{
document.write('');
}
