Perhaps you already do this, but my approach is to test using Firefox
whilst coding, and then when I'm basically happy with what I've got,
see what IE does with it. Nine-and-a-bit times out of ten a problem is
due to IE's screwy interpretation of things, with Firefox just obeying
the rules*. Anecdotal evidence points to quite a few others around
here taking a similar approach.


* Sometimes the rules it obeys I don't entirely agree with, but that's
a different issue!
