Six Tags That Defeat Internet Explorer
Just how bad in quality control at Microsoft?
If you save the following code (from August 2007) in an HTML file, it fatally crashes Internet Explorer. And the code is very basic: the first half defines a default style of relative positions, and the second half puts an input box in a very rudimentary table. And the brain trust in Redmond has not fixed this, despite dozens of weekly "updates" to Windows in the interim.
<style>*{position:relative}</style><table><input /></table></code></blockquote>
