This appears to be an exotic HTML issue, but I strongly suspect it's related to CSS, so I'm posting the question here.
This problem only appears in IE (tested in 6) and not in Firefox. It was sent to me by a client who can't figure out why the content area is popping out below the left menu. Oh, that's an easy one, right? Here's a copy of the page: http://tutoring.boisestate.edu/Workshops/Reading/skiptest.shtml Look at it in IE6 and you'll see the problem right away. This page is a clone of all the rest of the pages at the site, all of which work fine. No the page doesn't validate and stuff, but just let that slide. The problem resides in line 96. It's just a plain paragraph with an italicized phrase. Comment the paragraph out and the page works fine. But it's even weirder. The *specific* problem is in the phrase: "Your Guide to College Success." Add any string between "to" and "College" and the page works! It has to be a letter; a non-breaking space doesn't do the trick. I can kludge it by doing a span in white and inserting a single letter, but I'd sure like to know what the heck is going on here! I hereby consult the Collective Wisdom.
