I know that I can use the code <!--[if IE]> to make something load only if the user is using IE. Can I do the same for other browsers similar to the if...else statements with Javascript???<br />
<br />
Basically, if it is IE show this code, if it is anything else, whow another code??<br />
<br />

Umm... technically there is, but it's not valid X/HTML. Those are IE5+/Win's (proprietary) Conditional Comments. No other browser supports them.<br />

Why?<!--content-->Yes you can do it - it is just a matter of having the comments start and end in the right places.<br />
<br />
<!--[if IE]><br />
Browser is Internet Explorer<br />
<![endif]><![if !IE]--><br />
Browser is NOT internet Explorer<br />
<!--[endif]--><!--content-->The following is what IE5+/Win shows when I try that. Apparently it keeps track of which tag its expecting.<br />
Browser is Internet Explorer <![if !IE]--> Browser is NOT internet Explorer <!--[endif]--> <br />
The following seems to work though, so thank you very much Felgall.
I expect this will come in handy at some point.<br />
