re: IE 6 stuff
You're right. It wasn't so much that I don't have access to IE6 as that I judged it was a low priority...and we've clearly established how badly wrong that was!
To get at IE6, what I do is swivel my chair left 90 degrees and put my hands on the keyboard of my development server. I just have to get my priorities straight. I do use MSTS for remote access to the public server, and have it open most of the time to keep an eye on things like that runaway IMAP process that killed the server last week. Pretty cool to be able to do that.
