Problem reproduced on my IE6. The page loads down to "Telenovela-World"
in the left-hand nav bar, which is about even with the recap text
"Rebeca gets nowhere and Emilio ushers her out of his room." The entire
source code is known to the browser (View source reveals it all), but
the display stops as noted. I can get it *all* to display by changing
the text size to view with. Then it all becomes visible. Like you say,
it works (load- and scroll-wise) fine in my FF.
One cool place to start would be to add a doctype, putting IE in
standards mode. Try <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">.
Then, you can validate the page and try to get rid of potential causes
of you problem. As it sits, your page has 435 errors.
BTW, instead of long, long strings of text "formatted" with <br /><br />
pairs, why not mark up your content paragraphs as <p> elements? Or does
blogspot.com keep you from doing sensible things? :-|
