Kaffeen,
Can you provide a URL to the page in question. Might be easier to help
if we can take a look at it.
Also, I sort of agree with the comment from Doug. Using a JS framework
(I prefer jQuery) rather than hand coding. Though not impossible. Just
better cross-browser handling via a framework. Not going to comment on
the IE6 thing.
