No, there absolutely is not. That would be unsafe: users could insert arbitrary HTML content in comments and have IE pick it up using IE conditionals. If there were an actual use-case that was of any value, we could strip IE conditional comments and let all others pass . . . which would be safe only assuming there are no other scary abuses of comments out there, and that we get the conditional comment stripping right. If there are no use-cases, it's not worth it. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
