IE css hack
IE6 Only
==================
_selector {...}
IE6 & IE7
==================
*html or { _property: }
IE7 Only
==================
*+html or { *property: } - Keep in mind that you have to put the IE7 property first within the same selector.
IE8
==================
.selector/*\**/ { color:#f00; }
**NOTE**: LESS v1.5.0 shoots out an error when compiling the CSS if you use this hack :/
IE8 and IE9 (TOTALLY NOT NEEDED - I LEFT HERE FOR REFERENCE ONLY)
==================
.selector { color:#f00\9; } - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/660652/ie8-css-selector
The above solution doesn't work with font-family, so instead you need to use "\0/ !important"
Example: { font-family:Arial \0/ !important; }

Also, using "\9" is picked up by IE10 and IE11 so you need to redeclare the CSS rules with "-ms-high-contrast:". See info below.
IE9 Only
==================
:root .class/#id { property:value \0/IE9; }
**NOTE**: Prepos v4.0.1 shoots out an error when compiling the CSS if you use this hack :/

IE10 Only
==================
Method 1: UA Sniffing, which isn't the most loved method to target browsers, but here it is anyway.
http://css-tricks.com/ie-10-specific-styles/
Place this script in the <head>:
<script>
var doc = document.documentElement;
doc.setAttribute('data-useragent', navigator.userAgent);
</script>
Usage:
html[data-useragent*='MSIE 10.0'] .selector {...}
Method 2: It used 'Conditional compilation' which is not UA sniffing. Also, it excludes IE11 as well.

Conditional compilation: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8ka90k2e(v=vs.94).aspx
Place this script in the <head>:
<!--[if !IE]><!-->
<script>
if (/*@cc_on!@*/false && document.documentMode === 10) {
document.documentElement.className+=' ie10';
}
</script>
<!--<![endif]-->
Note: Seems the Conditional Comment is not necessary, but I like to include it for good measure.
Usage:
.ie10 .selector {...}

IE10 and IE11
==================
@media screen and (-ms-high-contrast: active), (-ms-high-contrast: none) {
.selector { property:value; }
}
