HOWTO: Internet Explorer conditional comments in XSLT

Hi all,

With the forthcoming arrival of Internet Explorer 7, Microsoft are
exhorting people[1] to use IE's conditional comments[2] to apply their CSS
hacks.

It seems from comments at Dave Shea's Mezzoblue[3] that some people have
had trouble generating conditional comments using XSLT, so I've written up
how to do it:

I hope this isn't considered OT, but it occurred to me that there must be
people subscribing to the list who have faced this problem, so I thought
it might help. Feel free to castigate me and correct my mistakes, whether
through my comments form or via email.

Regards,

Nick.
