God, I still have to take care 48% IE6

The browser war has so many players in it: IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera... and some other mobile browsers. After turning to Mac, I have a delusion that most people are using Firefox, or Safari, or Chrome. When I check the website visitor report, the truth kicks me off from the cloud -- There are still 48% IE6 users visiting the website.
I'm not a super fan of Firefox in Windows, but in Mac, all the fonts looks so nice in any browser (definitely not including IE) and I just don't want to look back to the IE in Windows. Isn't it a nightmare? With the Web Developer and Firebug add-on, Firefox is so powerful a web app development tool. In the meanwhile, the IE develop toolbar looks like a kid. Even in IE8, the improved built-in develop tool bar, has so many limitations. It's killing me.
After complaining so much, I have to face the fact: 48% IE6! The good side is, Firefox and other browsers are stronger than last year. Take Firefox for example, it grows from 7% to 8%.

Fix the bug of ANCHOR not working in IE

ANCHOR may not work in IE when it's working fine with Firefox. Check the HTML code to see if the ANCHOR is written in this way:

<div><a name="anything">a>div>

Then it can not work in IE. Don't know why. Maybe another bug?
Note that there's nothing in the ANCHOR tag. Here's how to fix it: Simply add something even a space in it. For example like this:

<div><a name="anything"> a>div>
