conditional formatting for IE7- CSS issue

[MSK]

Hi,

I am a newbie to CSS , I have an issue in my project
its java based web app, all the pages are looking fine
IE6,Firebox...but the problem is appearing in IE7

basically some div class heights are not showing the object properly

how to fix... If I increase the height parameter then the page is not
appearing properly in IE6

can we have some conditional parameter in the css ..something like
this

mainblock:
{
margin: 0em 0em 0em 0em
height:36%
/* I think the following will overwrite the height for IE 7
only ..Isn' it?*/
<!--[if IE7]>
height:50%
<![endif]-->
}

but its not working fine, I think the syntax is wrong... how to achive
this ? I dont want to have multiple css file for each and having the
reference (rel) in all the documents..

Thanks

MSK.

Post a URL. How else can we see the problem?

It's a HTML problem and nothing to do with Java. JSP just makes plain
old HTML, it doesn't make magic Java-HTML. If you can't show us an
intranet Java webapp, then copy the resultant HTML and upload it
somewhere we can see it.

I doubt very much if you need to tweak anything for IE7 specifically.

Thanks for your response, sorry in this time I am not able to give
much about the project (url or screen shots.)

bascially I want to use a single css file for all the browsers
(including IE7), my current CSS is working fine for IE6 ,lower
versions of IE and firefox but some minor issue in IE7 , I want to fix
the issue for IE7
so I want to change the CSS file , I dont want to change JSP or JAVA
files...how to change ?

please give me some idea

Thanks
MSK

You do not seem to understand without *seeing* what you have how could
we possibly advise you? It's like playing "I spy with my little eye..."

Multiple declarations must be separated by the use of semicolons (;).
