Seriously? Even after a decade of IE 6 it’s hard to believe MSFT is that incompetent / shows such poor judgement… If it's true and it's not Thunderbird overcompensating then probably all you can do is move from ; to &. They are equivalent in the spec though I prefer semi-colons because they are four characters shorter when typing HTML -> ; vs & (proper spelling of & in HTML).	[reply]
