Hello Bruno, thanks very much for that useful hint.
Meanwhile the font-family and the color are correct in IE 6. I will try tio sort out the other issues you mentioned. One other question: IE 6 still shows bullets in front of the list items. I tried "list-style: none;" and "list-style-type: none;", but it doesn't work in IE 6. Do you have any idea what causes the problem?

You have in this sheet index.php?title=MediaWiki:Monobook.css&usemsgcache=yes&action=raw&ctype=te xt/css&smaxage=18000 groups of selectors like div#p-navigation.portlet li a, div.portlet[id="p-Zeno.org"] li a, div#p-tb.portlet li a IE 6 does not understand the second selector and seems to ignore the whole rule including it. (Note: IE 6 also has problems with selectors including both id and class, this is called multiple #id.class bug and documented in the wiki, so I would remove the ".portlet" part in the above, since it is probably redundant, but this is not your actual problem...) Of course you cannot immediately change the [id="p-Zeno.org"] with a normal # selector because of the dot inside the id name. If you cannot change this name, you can try to escape the dot, IE 6 seems to understand div#p-Zeno\002Eorg in place of div[id="p-Zeno.org"] ("." expressed as unicode \002E, probably a simpler \. also works, I'm not sure.) All this accounts for the missing styles in your left bar. Then there are other problems, as you have already noticed, that can hopefully be fixed giving hasLayout to some elements. Both inline-block and width that you have used are hasLayout triggers [1]. On your links is probably better to avoid width:100% because they have a non zero right margin and such width will cause further problems on their containers. I haven't really looked further.
