IE 6 renders incorrectly

[Michael G. Schneider]

Does anybody know why the following HTML page is rendered incorrectly (IE 6,
XP SP2)?

The last characters from the div are replicated to the next line. The HTML
is minimal. If you remove one or the other tag, the effect cannot be seen.
Even removing the HTML comments will make the error disappear.

Changing one of the values in the Style tag will solve the error for me.
<style type="text/css">
#container { width: 750px; }
#center { float: right; width: 566px; }
#left{ float: left; width: 188px; }
</style>

Note the change in value from 184px to 188px

There are several ways for making the error disappear. You might even try
and remove the HTML comments, then the error will not be there.

I think the rendering engine has a problem, and hopefully it will be solved
in some future version.
