IE6 Duplicate Content Bug


Posted on Jan 10, 2008 by Swift Kangaroo

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Html comments entered between columns anywhere on the page triggers the duplicate content bug in IE6, which results in characters from the final floated div being repeated below it.

Revision 350, current as of Jan 10th 08.

Please provide any additional information below.

Documented fixes are to replace all html comments with ie conditional comments (set to ignore ie) and decrease the size of the final div on the page (or increase its parent by 3px)

  • html .column.final { margin-right: -3px; }

What a weird bug. :)

I don't think we should have an extra class for this bug, because, as you say, one could just replace the comment with a conditional comment, or remove the comment altogether.
