      Description

      There's a couple of CSS rules that start .ie .mform that confused me when trying to get forms laying out consistently across browsers. I'm not sure what they're doing, I assume they're working around some IE bug, but it's not clear that the bug applies to versions of IE that are still supported by Moodle 2.3 and if not then it might be better to have a single layout that applies to all browsers so that people aren't seeing subtly different things if there is no longer a reason for that.

      Also, there's a variety of rules in the base css that start .ie6 for IE6 (and possibly the same for 7). If these are no longer supported then they can just be deleted to save download size.
