I'm was not asking about validity. Markup validity is directly dependent upon the DOCTYPE specified for the page. What I'm trying to find out is specifically how IE 6 breaks (as in incorrectly renders the page) when using valid HTML 5 markup (including self-closing tags) with <!DOCTYPE html>. Again assume no HTML 5 only features only markup syntax. I'm asking because I don't personally use any version of IE, much less IE 6. I'd really like to know if IE 6 actually has problems rending HTML 5 markup. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
