Georg,

Thanks! I just recently found out about the "duplicating characters"  
bug in IE. I learned the hard way I guess. I assume that in this  
instance it is repeating space rather than duplicating actual  
characters?

I removed some of the comments and it seems to fix things...

I will find that extra closing div...

Thanks again!

Cheers,

Max
