evolt.org has a short piece on MSIE6 bug with floating divs and spacers. Buggy browsers which don't support web standards continue to curse the lives of web developers the world over. It's not helped by your average user's total ignorance regarding browsers - many people don't realise how big a difference a version makes. Gentle persuasion can help a bit, but mostly users just get pissy if you dare suggest that The Problem is their software. Yes we can design something which works for most people; but if you, hissy person, are using a 'version two' browser, then you do not count as "most people". Hell, upgrades are free and there are detailed instructions out there regarding the installation process. Even if you're not a computer geek you should be able to work it out - you installed MS Office, didn't you chum!
