I want to create an install-experience which should support the
following:

* If the install-user selects a particular feature for install, that
feature should install a new virtual directory in the default IIS web
site.

* If IIS is not installed the install should not fail if the user
haven't selected the feature. If the user has selected the feature it is
okay that the install fails with an appropriate error. 

Can anybody enlighting me with how to achieve this using WiX 3.0,
supporting install on Windows XP SP2 (IIS 6.0), Windows Vista (IIS 7.0)
and Windows Vista SP1 (IIS 7.0)?

Thanks in advance for all replies.

/Michael

PS. If IIS is not installed the install-experience can be improved by
either:

a) The particular feature is disabled/grayed out (i.e. cannot be
selected) and a descriptive message is stating "You cannot select
this feature for install because it requires IIS, which is not currently
installed."

b) The particular feature is enabled, but when selecting it, the user
is warned with a message a la "Warning. IIS is not currently
installed. This feature requires IIS installed to succeed."
