Re: Why doesn't this page display anything in IE6?

I use Firefox and Opera simply because I do all of my development work
on FreeBSD, it just seems to be the natural fit for me.

Even if I wasn't a BSD user in my experience it's easier to write a
compliant and working web application in Firefox and then write some
kludge code to work around IE's misgivings.

Back to the topic, the nested UL/LI's are valid in both HTML4 and
XHTML1 and I couldn't find any errata for IE6 to check for bad tag
combinations. The only known problem for IE6 and XHTML that I know of
is that the document must be served as 'text/html' and not as he proper
XHTML type 'application/xhtml+xml'.

Perhaps it's the XML declaration that's giving it problems, I'll
probably try changing that for IE and seeing if it still works, but
that will break the XHTML validation.
