What about using the ID class selector bug or the last class bug.

http://www.brettschultz.com/ie6_exhibit_a.html


IE8 in IE5 quirks mode is showing the last test "Aqua." and first and second 
test red.
IE8 in IE7 strict mode is showing the last test "Aqua." and first test green 
and second test red.

IE6 will show red, red, transparent. The page so happens to have no doctype 
(handy). Would this only happen if it was IE7 quirks? I not sure really if this 
would work. This whole mystery mode thing confuses me. :-)
