iPad Orientation CSS #iPhone #iPad #CSS

I didn't realise changing the CSS due to orientation was quite as easy as this... So I thought I'd share.
<link rel=”stylesheet” media=”all and (orientation:portrait)” href=”portrait.css”>
<link rel=”stylesheet” media=”all and (orientation:landscape)” href=”landscape.css”>

Unfortunately, we're not really allowed to tell clients that using IE6 makes them stupid. Or that IE6 is a leading cause of Cancer in Over 25's. But we may no longer have to.
