title: IE Conditionals on html 5 boilerplate or initializr don't work with Modernizr?
body: <p>The way IE Conditionals work on HTML5Boilerplate / initializr doesn't seem to work with Modernizr.</p>
  
  <p>What I mean is that the <code>&lt;html&gt;</code> element doesn't contain the correct class for ie, if for example <code>lt-ie9</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
  &lt;!--[if lt IE 7]&gt;      &lt;html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8 lt-ie7"&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;
  &lt;!--[if IE 7]&gt;         &lt;html class="no-js lt-ie9 lt-ie8"&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;
  &lt;!--[if IE 8]&gt;         &lt;html class="no-js lt-ie9"&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;
  &lt;!--[if gt IE 8]&gt;&lt;!--&gt; &lt;html class="no-js"&gt; &lt;!--&lt;![endif]--&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>On IE &lt; 9 for example, I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html class=" js no-flexbox no-canvas..."&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So, as you can tell, there's no way I can target ie&lt;9 by using the lt-ie9 class.</p>
  
  <p>I've been noticing this for quite a while and I usually end up having to use javascript to add the class dynamically.</p>
  
  <p>So, I'd like to know if this is correct.  Anyone else experienced this?</p>
  
  <p><strong>I'm using IE10 Dev tool, on IE8 mode, so not sure if conditionals are supported</strong></p>
  
  <p>Thanks for looking!</p>
