Apostrophe & Apostrophenow & IE6

apostrophenow.com and the demo say nothing to tell IE6 users it's not going to work for them.

john, can you take a look at this at some point

The apostrophenow.com site is almost a sideline, actual apostrophe sites need to do this. The bundled layout should have a simple red banner at top via layout.php IF you are on a CMS page AND it is editable by you.

IE6 Message

[johnnyoffline]

I am happy with how this is implemented.

Conditional Comment

	<!--[if lt IE 7]>
		<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
			aIE6();
		</script>
	<![endif]-->

The function lives inside of aUI(); because we are dealing with the fact that IE6 cannot support the wicked awesome UI :D.

The function spits out a message for IE6 uses upon logging in. It also applies the body class: ie6.

We use it in a.css to hide interface elements from the logged in IE6 user for simplicity's sake.

* Correction *

it doesn't live INSIDE aUI()

it lives in the aUI.js file as its own function. I mistyped.
