I hate supporting IE6
Filed under: work, Internet Explorer
Clearly the correct response when you accidentally resize div elements inside a fixed table cell so that they are a little too tall is to hide other unrelated absolutely positioned elements...*POOF*
This is the second major IE6 issue I have had to work around. Thankfully, I am usually able to ignore IE6 in my job. When a client raises most non-major issues I can just reply, "Hmm, yeah, that's interesting," and go about my business.
Microsoft already decided to break the web with IE8, they should go the rest of the way and force IIS to just stop accepting IE6 all together when IE8 comes out. I don't know, some massive push of a web server update that just displays and upgrade link to every IE6 request. That would be nice.
