Mandor, please prepend the title of off-topic nodes with OT - or something similar. Most monks don't seem to mind OT nodes, so long as there is something peripherally related to what we do.

As for your question, our IS director recently switched to IE6 but didn't tell me. I wasted a good chunk of time trying to debug the text alignment problem before I realized what was going on. Rest assured, you're not the only one with this problem. Further, this problem is occuring on some of the Web-based administrative consoles that I've been creating. Sometimes it centers the text and other times it right-justifies it. I've resolved the issue by telling our users that IE6 should be considered beta quality and therefore we cannot support it.

Cheers,
Ovid

Update: In retrospect, this thread's not off-topic. I'll shut up now :)
