The following HTML for IE6 does not work for me:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><body>This text is visible.<textarea>This too.</textarea> This is not visible. <select><option value="a">A</option><option value="b">B</option></select> Neither is this. <textarea>Nor this.</textarea> Nor this. </body></html>
In IE6, every time I put select code in the code, everything disappears after that (and some of them, too, as you can see). All texts are visible in both IE8 and Firefox. Is this a known bug in IE6? Could this have anything to do with Windows 7? Or could it be my installation of Internet Explorer Collection 1.6.0.6, which is a mistake?
Edit: here is the screen:
