Damn browsers!

Man, don't you just hate it when you get a site working PERFECTLY in all the major browsers (FF 2.x + , IE 7 Gecko, etc) - and then only to find that it doesn't work properly on IE 5.5 or 6!!!!)

Man it drives me nuts (especially when even IE 4 and 5 work - just not 5.5 and 6!!!)

one of the most frustrating parts of web development - testing IE - and then the hours of hacking to fix it.

Yeah :(

It turned out to be a table was a little to wide. Setting the text in it to 7pt (instead of 8pt) worked fine - but the amount of hair ripping it took to figure that out Pirate

God damn M$ Tongue
