Has anyone had much experience with IE6 and the way it renders code? According to Microsoft at this page:
there you can make IE6 stick strictly to standards if you use the DOCTYPE tag with an appropriate HTML version defined. However, i can't get it to work. It only seems to be going into "compliant mode" when i delete the tag completely. here is what i am using for my doctype:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 strict//EN&quot;
	&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd&quot;>[/URL]

this problem only seems to be applying to the width properties in CSS which is discussed in the above link
