This element can have either of two different classes, classOne or classTwo. (Either you're swapping the className in script, or it can have different classes on different pages.)

Your CSS might look like this:

#id.classOne { some styles }
#id.classTwo { some different styles }

In MSIE 6, the #id.classTwo style will never be applied - unless it is put in a separate style tag or style sheet.

A workaround is to place the CAPTION after the COL/COLGROUP tags, but this makes the code invalid.

When the image is swapped for a far smaller image, the parent element's width should diminish. Mozilla, though, doesn't diminish the width of the other elements in the floated element, and therefore the parent element retains its original width. Test page. Workaround is not included.

Disabled buttons with text content are not greyed out and still respond visually to clicks (albeit without generating any onclick events).

In <BUTTON> elements with image content, the addition of a disabled atribute has no effect whatsoever.

When scrolling to the end of the form and backup again, and when the browser window is resized to a smal size it seems even more persistent.
