The :hover in the first example is redundant and causes the selector
to fail in IE 6. The second example works fine.

You're utterly right. That's fascinating.

Update:
Couldn't get csshover.htc to work - dumped it in with my stylesheets and called it via body{behavior:url(stylesheets/csshover.htc)} but it wouldn't have any effect... May turn out to be a stupid oversight but in the meantime, your suggestion [button{cursor:pointer}] works fine for the cursor, and wrapping the inputs in <a href="#"> and changing the style to a:hover input{...} works great across the board, providing the relevant <a>s are styled with text-decoration:none;
