I encountered a bug in IE6 where the z-index of <select> elements is always higher than of other elements, regardless of their z-index, i.e. <select> elements always appear on top of everything else. This is a problem for PMA because the tooltip feature becomes blocked and you can't read the text inside:

http://lorilee1.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/ie_export-e1280869331806.pngThe fix for this is to position an iframe directly on top of every single <select> element to just cover it, though it's really just an hack.
I'm wondering if it's even necessary to continue supporting IE6. (Google stopped supporting it for YouTube...)

For this, there's a solution by jQuery Tooltip. I mean, moving tooltips to the jQuery would resolve these problems.

Googles YouTube is still usable with IE6 for basic functions. I'm thinking the PMA basic functions should be usable with the (terrible old) IE6, because on some systems the IE6 is the default browser. All new (and sometimes complicated) functions must not be usable with the IE6, but it would be nice to tell those peoples to update their browser and/or system.

Nice, I did not know that jQuery had a tooltip. I can change the current tooltips to the jQuery one.
