        Hmmm, curioser and curioser, it also works fine in IE if you set options to "Normal" view. Something broken in the DHTML view ? Or in the last message posted (IE Bug: from soptest) because it blows up IE if you try to view that message (even in normal view) and yet the other messages are quite viewable. This is fun. :)

          Depending on what version you're using, there is an option to keep all new instances in new processes or something. Used to be in Tools > Internet Options > Advanced but I can't find it today. -- Andrew.

                      Of course soptest is correct. Soptest planted it in the forum. Look in your Web Page Cache, open http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=1647 Do a search for <STYLE>p{cssText: font-weight: bold;}</STYLE>. You'll see that it was posted by soptest. If you take out the invalid STYLE tag the page works just fine. Logically it kind of makes sense for it to blow: As the HTML is parsed it runs across the STYLE tag, when its contents are parsed its contents are assigned to the cssText property but of course this is invalid data. And the normal checks that prevent the bug from happening in javascript aren't applied because its MSHTML doing the work. This is all theoretical speculation of course....

                                Yeah I hate it when you have multi Instances of IE open and they all die on you like that. You'd think they could have installed a reset feature in IE to stop that. Darn programmers Regardz Colin J Davies

                                    After closing all IE windows, a background process called IEXPLORE.exe would crash four times. Then the name iexplore.exe disappeard from the task manager. Maxwell Chen Lets make bugs better!

                                        and I thought it was just me. I've cleaned everybit of IE cache and cookies, cleared disk space, send about 20 error reports from IE to MS. Still crashed like a bitch, so I went to bed. I assumed it was my machine but obviously something must be rendering problem as the crash is in mshtml.dll (why won't MS ship debug info with their apps :-( ) Michael :-) "Eureka" is Greek for "This bath is too hot"
