Counting CSS conditional comments?

[marcric]

Apparently DOM Monster is counting CSS conditional comments.

In my site the only comment is a hack for IE

And DOM Monster reports it as a regular comment.

Should DOM Monster ignore this kind of comment when counting?

If so, how?

Regards.

I think it is easy possible, we could track down the conditional comments and remove it from counting. But i don't know if Thomas like the idea behind this.

Is this really needed?

Well, my point is:

Conditional comments are not "real comments" they are there with a programmatic purpose.

So IMHO they couldn't be counted as regular comments.

Should be counted in a separate comment category at least.
