Thank you so much for this sanity-saving fix. I’ve spent the last 6+ hours trying to figure this one out with no luck. It works perfectly now with
a:hover {paddding-top: 0;} applied.
Much appreciated, and I agree that you should contact the guys over at P.I.E with this bug, as I couldn’t find a solution to this problem there.

Yes, but it isn’t just annoying, it’s really corrupting the web… this crappy browser… :-(

I really hope that systems with OS’ “below” Windows XP will disappear soon, as we can assume that in the world of Windows XP we will at least see a great migration from IE6 to IE7 this year. Doesn’t solve all the problems, but the most annoying ones I think. Microsoft should only be more rigorous in distributing the new version… and yes, to users of illegal versions too, as they are a great amount of windows users at all. So if they really want to help us developers and the web itself they should make possible to update to IE7 without genuine authentication I think. I think it’s a better choice to help the web than to manage excluding illegal versions…

@Arne: That’s easy, IE6 does not support the adjecent sibling selector at all. You’ll have to use javascript for that… Annoying, isn’t it?

It seems that this fix doesn’t work for all combinations. At least when using adjacent sibling selectors the fix doesn’t work.

a:hover + .nextElement { display:block; }

does not work in IE6, no matter what I am trying. Have you got a tipp how I could get this running with IE6?

@Rasmus Kaj: Sorry for not answering until now. I don’t think they are related. IE probably does not even generate an event for mouseover on anything other than links, and I doubt that’s the problem here.

Siegfried, a button inside a link is invalid, and HTML4 does not define what should happen when you click on a button that is inside a link, so no behavior is wrong.

This feels somwehat related to the fact that IE6 ignores :hover on elements other than a …

Is that fixed in IE7?

There is another IE bug with links. I already posted it on several sites, but this seems to be ignored.
As you know, inside any anchor (a element) there may be any text or html inline element, and anything which is rendered visually then becomes clickable and should lead to the destination referenced by the href attribute. Not so with the IE. Just try to put a button inside the anchor. The destination is shown in the status line, but clicking on that link does nothing. This is a bug in the most basic and important feature of the web.

@Adam: Seems that setting almost anything on a:hover works.
