"nobody seemed to care" is a little unjust, since AFAIK I friendly
replied about what could be the cause, and we more or less together
concluded that "little we can do" because it are all external
products.

The nifty floating table of contents though, which I added, is not
working completely in IE5.5 so I just added another nifty CSS trick to hide the 
damn thing from IE.

But i think if support for certain other style elements is missing or
broken in IE5.5 then that is simply too bad, and not a bug of ours. I
think btw that IE 5.5 is not the latest version anyway. How is IE 6 doing?

If changing the css or overriding the xsl could make things better for
IE then I'm all before, I'm just not going to do it myself. Adding a
'best viewed with' statement always seemed pretty lame to me, but even
then 'be my guest' (I'd prefer saying then 'this page uses CSS2 /
XHTML 1.0....').
