if anyone out there has IE6 on a PC (yeah, I'm talking to you 7.34) have a look at this:

when you roll over Medical Devices, it duplicated content and wraps all goofy.... the markup for that content is the same as all the others. All others work fine with the exception of BSI Services > Assessment and Certification.
For the life of me I can not figure this out. Any insight is appreciated.
Needless to say, this only occurs in IE6.

Looks a little like you may be suffering from the duplicate character bug you get with some floated elements in IE6.
Take a read through this and see if you can tweak your stylesheet accordingly http://www.positioniseverything.…

In the interest of adding something new to the thread then ..
If you want to run a testing copy of IE6, you can install a virtual machine (on PC) and just sling a load of test browsers on there so you can just have a copy of IE6 sitting there to test with.

^ that is handy. I discovered that the "multipleIE" from tredosoft does not allow form access, which makes it hard to test login pages, since you cant, you know, log in.
So yeah, I have the company PC running virtual machine with 6 on it. the is really the only way to test properly. Well, that or a totally different computer.
- I also found that while their IE6 looked like IE6, it identifies itself as IE7.jamble

that fixed it.
added display:inline to the classes with the float definitions.
cheers, mateys.
