That is why conditional CSS is for. If you read the article I post, you are able to display a simpler layout for IE6 dumb engine. That way you wont have tabs but a horizontal list.

Hi Maarten,

Excellent - that's the only major hurdle (except for figuring out the
extra styles).

RE: what Alexandro wrote just now, I don't think IE6 is actually
capable (though feel free to prove me wrong) of displaying complex CSS
like that. It would require a JavaScript solution, and then we'd have
to make everyone else load the JavaScript as well.

Hi,

 Now at test.openoffice.org you can login, search and change language
 using IE6. It is not as fancy as with the other, better browsers, but
 functionally it is the same. Since no-one else has been working on it,
and we need to move forward, I believe this approach is good enough for now.

 What is the solution?

Instead of presenting tabs, present links when browser = IE6. Instead of
 being able to search directly from each page, or login in... or change
language in the near future, IE6 users will be directed to another page...

The current solution is just to make sure IE6 is not the show stopper, I
 would have liked to fix the tabs for IE6.

 IE6 market share is dropping anyway... (though still substantial, twice
 as big as Firefox according to this source[1], IE 7 is more popular)
