[Phpmyadmin-devel] Docs, IE6 sucks

Hi all I played a bit more with the docs layout changes, but I only found that IE6 is really bad browser. - it desn't support position:fixed from CSS, but a workaround using expressions existed for older versions - this workaround works only when doctype is HTML 4 and not when it is XHTML So there are three possibilities: - ignore that top menu will not be always visible in IE6 and stay with XHTML - make the document HTML 4 - stay with previous doc layout What do you choose? -- Regards Michal Cihar nijel at users dot sourceforge dot net http://cihar.liten.cz

What do you choose?

I saw a better workaround somewhere, I'll dig for it, but for now we can just go with XHTML.
