I would have thought the best way to target a browser (be it IE5 or other)
was content negotiation. Detect the browser and serve content in the
appropriate format. Does anyone else get the feeling this technique is
rarely used whilst cruder methods proliferate?
IMHO, web servers can do a lot more

I agree completely James. Targetting browsers is an inefficient waste of
time in about 95% of cases. AFAIK its a big step backwards.
Having said that its hard to draw a line. We often find ourselves doing
things like
div classouterdiv class=inner
...and hiding some stuff inside @import to work
