'right guys,
something i come across each time i code a site, is the problem IE6 has with making things bigger than they really are...
for example, i have one thing, floated next to another thing, all measured out nicely and all that, but when it comes to the IE6 checks, things that were "next to" are now "underneath"...
the solution which works most of the time is simply to make the containing div wider, which i hate doing, can't stand messing my neat code up just cuz of IE6 (i do however realise that it must me done)
so... i was wondering since this is by far the most common problem i encounter (despite using the xhtml 1.1 dtd), if any of you knew a tried-and-tested workaround for this as i really do stumble across the problem all the time and hate growing the container divs to accomodate...
if anyone could explain whats happening or suggest a fix i'd be most grateful
