Hi Paul,
Everyone gave some really good suggestions, but you should invest
in this book http://www.cssmastery.com/ . I'm more of a back-end guy
now, but i've done front-end development for some big name companies
and this book has been my CSS bible. It's hasn't let me down once.
Additionally it provided answers to all previous CSS problems I've
googled prior to buying the book.

How do most people even do IE 6 testing? As far as I can tell, there
is no legal means to test IE6 on a mac or linux.
Under windows I've had good luck with MultipleIEs [1], for Linux there is
IEs4 Linux [2].
The easiest route is probably to keep a Windows machine around running
IE7, IE6 (via MultipleIEs), Firefox, Safari and Opera. You'll still run
into issues that only raise their heads in older versions, but you'll have
the major bases covered.

The best way to test IE is in windows.
If you're doing web stuff, most of your users will be on windows, so you
have to run windows.
My solution, which works quite well: VirtualBox (http://www.virtualbox.org),
is a free Virtual machine. A couple of small VMs running under MacOS as the
host operating system (you can run VirtualBox on linux too) let me test in
both IE6 and IE7. I figured out how to do it when my (non-virtual) windows
machine died. It actually works quite well. I suppose the multipleIE setup
could work too, but it seemed wonky last time I tried. So now I just have
to virtual windows boxes, one running IE6, another running 7.
Yes, this means paying for a copy of XP. I hate to do it, personally, but
if you're in this business, it's a necessary evil.
