Today I got a really weird problem with IE 6. I had some floating divs in my page and noticed some characters were being repeated.

If I looked into the code everything was right, the good boys —Opera, Firefox, Mozilla— showed everything ok. I also tried with IE 5.01 and IE 5.5 —yep, I’ve got the multiple IE installations— and everything was fine there too.

So, I did what I always do when in trouble with my an XHTML / CSS design: Going to css-discuss archives and then googling a little.

It took me less than a minute to know that the duplicated elements bug is a known issue, due to having HTML comments between floats. Explorer Exposed tells us more about this problem.

Gosh, I really hate IE.
