  Hi Dave. Yes, but my understanding was that <!--[if IE 10]> is ignored by IE10+ so the statement doesn't do anything.

  The specific problem that I have is the positioning of "leftcol" (which is in fact the right column on the web site). On all non-ie browsers the positioning is controlled by:

  #leftcol{ margin-left: 745px; }

  In IE11 there was no sign of the left column. To fix this I needed:

  @media screen and (-ms-high-contrast: active), screen and (-ms-high-contrast: none) {
  /* IE10+ specific styles go here */ #leftcol { margin-left: 7px; } }

  Also Edge did the disappearing act too, but had to be fixed with:

  @supports (-ms-ime-align:auto) { .selector { property:value; } }

  I just wish the browser developers would stop delivering big bags of worms... The ultimate challenge became Chrome vs. Safari. Both use the same engine so a fix for one fixes the other. Except one needed the big margin and one the small margin. In the end I gave up on fixing the leftcol and floated it instead, thus negating the need for the other fixes.

  I suppose you could consider putting the IE10+ statement at the end of 0-basestyles without any actual modified tags, suitably commented that the developer can add custom tags here if needed. The Edge fix just seemed to work. You could also add it but commented out, so at least saving people time looking for how to fix a problem.

  Thanks again for your help with my problems.

  Peter.
