Another bug that I've not seen before that caused some confusion. Actually, the bug almost makes sense, except that it leaves IE6 and IE7 completely hanging.

Microsoft's bastard child needs your love, but surely not forever? Simon raises a point that even though IE8 is on it's way - due to IE6's market share, IE8 is almost good for nothing. I don't agree.

First let me say this took me ages to work out how this was going wrong, and that this bug affects both IE6 and IE7. IE is treating the name attribute on forms as the ID attribute, causing the getElementById to return very unexpected results.
