Would it be possible to write a jQuery plugin that automatically applied the necessary IE6 fixes to a standards compliant DOM?
The gap between IE6 and standards is fairly well understood. We all apply the usual hacks. Isn't it also possble to simply include a jQuery plugin that detects IE6 and irons them all out automatically. It could even recognise existing IE6 hacks and handle them. It's not a glamourous job, but whoever did this would be a rock star.
IE6 isn't going away. Why not just fix it with jQuery.
