CSS framework for beginner (old browsers)

Question

Sorry for the silly question but I've been looking around on the internet all afternoon with not much success due to the many many frameworks out there (too many).

I am a java web developer who normally doesn't deal with CSS. At my company we have to support ie6 for some stupid reason. I'm looking for a css framework I can use that will get me up and running quickly with some buttons, menu's and layouts and I don't want to just dload any old web template. Would be nice if I took the opportunity to set up the css myself.

Can anyone suggest some good tools/frameworks that will get me up and running quickly? I can't use bootstrap because it does not look compatible with ie6.

Answer 1

If you wish to build a website which is compatible with IE 6 (This is end month of 2013 where it has ie 11) I recommend using YAML http://www.yaml.de/ . It has clear documentation with examples. You can also use http://www.cascade-framework.com/ which has minimum CSS which required for a website/web application development. Also, YUI you can use http://yuilibrary.com/yui/environments/ .

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

sorry i don't use any css framewrok supported IE6,but i think older versions of some css framework may support IE6 like http://www.blueprintcss.org you can try.

Answer 3

Try Cascade Framework. It's about as feature rich as Bootstrap and has a grid system more flexible than any other grid systems around.
