What aspect of this doesn't work with IE6 for you? Do you have a weblink that you can provide so we can check?

Do you mean to say even on IE8, it breaks down? Or only IE6?

If it is IE6, yes it will break down - IE6 is not a HTML5 browser (doesn't support in full). Like Hans said, IE6 is obsolete now.

Keep IE8 as your benchmark and test upwards of IE8.

There is no logical reason to even attempt to make responsive sites
responsive in old browsers. The very concept defines progressive
enhancement. What Adobe is doing with its approach is an utter waste of
time.

#1 IE8 doesn't support CSS Media Queries.
#2 Mobile & Tablet devices do not use IE8 browsers.
SOLUTION: Build a fixed-width desktop style sheet for IE-only and add a Conditional Comment above the </head> tag and after all other CSS styles.



IE8 and below will use the IE-only.css
