Yes, this seemed plausible to me also - so I had already deleted the header by hand and tried it - but to no good effect - it made no difference. But, thanks for the reminder, I'll make this a permanent change.

The page that illustrates the problem best is this one:

http://senses.info/explaining-experience-in-nature/introductory-remarks/

It works fine in Safari and Firefox - and the problem remains if you turn off the scripting. It is definitely a layout problem.

With respect,
Steven

This is browser related, but I bet quite a few XSLers run into it.


The problem is if you output the page with the xml prolog (<?xml
version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>) IE6 will put you quirks mode. You
generally don't want to be in quirks mode when trying to achieve
consistency across browsers. So you can fix it by putting
omit-xml-declaration="yes" in you xsl:output.

IE7 does not do this.

Cool, huh?
