I have had a go at what seems to me the replacement looking at
the conditionals and have the latest at:

http://tinyurl.com/33w8gm

Is this right? It works fine in Safari and iCab.

Just btw (or not btw?), iCab is ok up to a point, but it has
always exhibited the following odd behaviour: Centering is fine
on load or refresh. But if one simply alters the window size
down, it is as if the design has a min-width of "as big as it was
before the window resize"! The scrollbars come up etc. All shakes
down fine on refresh. No big deal of course.

What I want to know is if http://tinyurl.com/33w8gm is ok in IE7
and 6 now?
