This past summer, I discovered that IE4 incorrectly parses \***\ as both the
beginning and end of a comment. To the best of my knowledge, IE4 is the only
browser that exhibits this behavior. Consider the following code as a simple
example.
body {
background: red;
/***/
background: blue;
I found it on a bittorrent site - probably torrentspy.com - after
hearing it had been leaked. If you can't find it I could probably turf
up the link.
I *thought* peekaboo had been killed in b1, but this form of it (if it
is) had certainly survived into b2.
