The Wufoo form gallery

I think that The WuFoo form gallery is a great start for some inspiration when creating online forms. Here you can find different type of complete forms, color schemes and more. You may also download the form HTML and the CSS templates from free. To use the more advanced functions, like online customizing, you have to create a login to do so.
Very weird IE6 comment bug
Posted by Martin in HTML/XHTML, Web development on April 30th, 2009
Today I was working on a site for a customer. Unfortunately all at the company used IE6 and IE7, so I really had to make it look good in the two. I was hacking on and suddenly I discovered a very, very weird behavior in IE6. The background color of one element was “leaking” over onto other elements on the site. VERY STRANGE!
So I started my investigation looking for errors in the outputted HTML. Found non. I went thorough my CSS – nothing … Then I started to take out code of the page, piece by piece to see if I could get it to disappear. After a long while I discovered it was too simple HTML comments screwing everything up. Two simple comments. I couldn’t believe it! So, so stupid (and so, so Internet Explorer 6).

<!-- WP Start -->
Yup! That’s it. And it took me hours to find it. I should Microsoft the bill … But wait, they did pay the bill! Haha! Later I discovered I’m not the only one with this problem. You can find more on the issue over at Position Is Everything.
Later!
