Saved me hours. Man, I hate IE's rendering issues... Took me a long while to work out it was due to the background image, and then only a minute to find your post! Thanks!

Been through exactly the same thing with ie6, backwards compatibility seems the only solution for me now. The peek-a-boo one spun me out, thanks for the solution!

Good to know how to differentiate bet. IE5.5 & IE6 using *html hack - it's particularly useful for images. Example: # html img{f\loat:left;} eliminates the mysterious margins in both browsers - IE5.5 doesn't like the float:left, while it's needed for IE6 to remove margin. Many Thanks and Keep on Rockin'!!

Best bet with that one is to get rid of as many div’s as possible, and really clean out the code.

Right now I trying to fight my way out of a combination of icons that get cropped, drop shadows that get the wrong height and background images that disappear :( The peek-a-boo one gives me the most grief as the usual fixes dont seem to work.
