Ummm... IE 6 doesn't have a standards mode... Adding that doctype is
probably just causing more issues. The HTML 5 doctype is useful for
forcing IE 7 and 8 into standards mode. If you want to get your
program rolling for IE 6 you're going to have to write some specific
views under the MVC or accept greater restrictions in your overall
design. GWT is not magic, it cannot force IE 6 to do something that
was not accounted for in its design. If you want that kind of magic
try Google Frame :)
