Problem selecting text in IE

xhtml+css+IE6 = select 'hell'

[Darkelve]

Every other browser out there works just fine, but
for some reason when someones uses IE6 on our site,
he cannot properly select a portion of the text (mouse
clicking+dragging over a piece of text).

I was told by someone that there was some Javascript
that could help solve that problem.

Could anyone tell me a bit more about what causes this
behavior, and where I can find the Javascript that tries
to solve this?

I suggest using a binary method to find what is causing the problem, and then address it. By that I mean cut out half the page - check if the problem is present. If it's still there, cut in half again, otherwise take the discarded half, cut it in half, etc... until you come up with just a few lines which cause the problem.

If you can't solve it then, post the code here and we'll help.
