Re: IE6 'hidden text'

I have a cross browser problem that I hope somebody has seen and found a

The problem is with an image aligned left the text does not show up on the
page in IE6. The display works properly in IE7, Opera 8.53, FireFox
1.5.0.11 and Netscape 8.1.2.

[snip some code]

As I said I hope somebody has seen this problem before, if not I will try
and create a 'minimal' html + css web page which demonstrated this IE6
problem.

As you didn't give a URL, I can't be certain which of the usual
culprits applies here. The effect is called the peek-a-boo bug, and is
documented here:
