Highlight Problems in IE6

For some reason when you try to highlight text in IE6, it highlights everything. I’ve looked it over a few times, and I can’t find the error.

Any ideas on a fix? Any help is very appreciated.

@WebJoelJun 10.2007 — So far, one error and 12 warnings:

[B]<a href="index.php">[/B]<h1 id="header"><span>Orlando Real Estate Florida Real Estate</span></h1>[B]</a>[/B]

should be:

<h1 id="header">[B]<a href="index.php"><span>Orlando Real Estate Florida Real Estate</span></a>[/B]</h1>

You cannot wrap a <h> tag in an anchor. Headers are block-level. And in this corrected context, I question the use of <span>. You could use the h1 id="header" and to your css, say:

#header a {[I]foo:bar[/I]}

whereby [I]foo:bar[/I] does what "<span>~</span>" does now.


But the real killer here, is the un-semantic use of the <h2> tag:

[B]<h2>[/B]LAKE MARY, Fla. – Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty has formed a “power team” of real estate experts who plan to tackle problem properties –– projects that are stalled or slowed by the real estate slump.

Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, will lead the team, which includes Economist Hank Fishkind, of Fishkind & Associates, marketing guru Mark Vergason of Vergason, Sojurner and McWaters Advertising and architect Tim Baker of Baker Barrios Architects in Orlando.

Soderstrom, with 39 years of real estate marketing and development experience, has developed a reputation as an industry visionary and creator of unique marketing strategies. Hank Fishkind, Mark Vergason and Tim Baker rank as leading experts in their specialty fields, and all have focused their professional careers on real estate. “Altogether we bring about 120 years of experience to the table,” Soderstrom said.

“Today, developers and lenders need to create new strategies to market stalled projects,” Soderstrom explained. “In today’s market, being good is just not enough – we need to find ways to be unique,” he said.

Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty will soon be opening its new state-of-the-art Global Gallery World Marketing Center in the 16th floor penthouse suite at The Plaza on Orange Ave. and Church St. in downtown Orlando.

Soderstrom said a new auction division designed to support luxury home sellers, builders, and developers is preparing for its first auction in the Global Gallery in August.

“Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty is part of the largest luxury real estate brand in the world and currently ranks as Sotheby’s International Realty’s largest affiliate in the southeast,” said Soderstrom. “We have access to potential luxury property buyers worldwide, and we plan to unleash our power on behalf of Central Florida builders and developers,” he said.

The "h" tag is a "HEADER". Use it as such, -a section's topic that summarizes the paragraph(s) beneith it. Use "paragraph" ("<p>") tags thereafter, for paragraphs. That is the problem. You are 'highlighting' the "h2" (all-inclusive).

@h3r0authorJun 13.2007 — I have fixed that issue, but it is still having the highlight problem.

Its happening everywhere, even when you try to highlight the items on the navigation menu.
