Well, you're clearly experiencing a variant of the 'Explorer 6 Duplicate
Characters Bug'...


Excellent! You are the man, that fixed it completely. Many thanks, 
that was driving me crazy.

[css-d] ie 6 text/float problems

[John Garrett]

Hi everyone

I'm having an ie 6 annoyance that I can't figure out.

If you have a look at this page in IE 6:

http://ftp.wildweststudios.com/wildweststudios/teskersite/dies.html

http://ftp.wildweststudios.com/wildweststudios/teskersite/teskerstyle.css

a screenshot of what happens in ie 6 is here:

http://ftp.wildweststudios.com/wildweststudios/teskersite/ie6-image.jpg

you'll see that the fax number from the bottom has shot up to the 
bottom of the picture above it. It looks as if this number appears 
twice, but it only show up once in the code.

Anyway, the footer where the number is supposed to be is floated 
underneath the two divs that contain the copy and the right-hand 
sidebar. I have set the footer to 'clear: both', but still the text 
goes up to the bottom of the sidebar div.

I even tried forcing a height onto the sidebar div to make it reach 
all the way down to the footer, but it didn't help.

The xhtml  and css have validated. Now I'm stuck...please help with 
any pointers or insight. Thanks!
