Yes, certainly I looked at the links concerning IE6. Here is the situation: I come from the only orange region ( as in this page http://www.ie6countdown.com/), so I have to consider the damn IE6 support seriously, :-(

Again, thanks for your reply !

What's your situation with IE6?  Do you develop software for corporate
