  1. $this->view->headLink()->appendStylesheet('/path/to/some/styles.css', 'screen', 'IE 8');

Which would produce this markup:

<!--[if IE 8]> <link href="/path/to/some/styles.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><![endif]-->

Adding a conditional JavaScript file is similar:

  1. $this->view->headScript()->appendFile('/path/to/some/script.js', 'text/javascript', array('conditional' => 'IE'));

And that would produce markup like this:

<!--[if IE]> <script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/some/script.js"></script><![endif]-->

It can pretty useful when you need to use IE conditional comments just for a single controller action. Otherwise, if it applies site-wide, it’s better to just put conditional stylesheets and/or scripts in a layout file.
