From what I can see, nothing....

URL?

(most likely you have markup errors)

ok
http://blue.live4all.co.il/~bets/private/index2.shtml

this is the address of the site
you'll sea at the bottom expanded window.
he suppose to go down with the scroll
but he won't do so at ie6 unless i delete the doctype
it happens because the body can't have overflow:hidden

sorry for my english. i know it's terrible...

Search around "quirks mode".

When you switch from Quirks to Standards mode IE changes its error
recovery behaviour for CSS syntax errors (such as missing length
dimension units). In Quirks mode it auto-corrects, in Standards it
rejects the malformed CSS fragment. Chances are that you have a CSS
error in there somewhere.

You should validate your pages (HTML & CSS) if you want this stuff to
work.
