Target IE6, IE7, and IE8 with only 4 characters (hack).

 / Published in: CSS
 

See the source above for a quick explanation. And don't ask me to explain why \9 works for IE8...but it does.

Use these with caution.

  4. *color : yellow; /* IE7 and below */  
  5. _color : orange; /* IE6 */  
  6. }
