This must predate IE5 right? I’m absolutely certain I was shipping larger single CSS files without hitting this.
- d4mi3n 5y agoI may be misremembering the file size (8kb? 32kb?), but I distinctly remember this being the bane of my existence for IE6. EDIT: my memory was faulty—I was conflating two bugs: 1. Certain CSS expressions on html or body tags could cause pages in IE6 and 7 to crash 2. In IE6, the browser would happily parse large CSS files until ~288kb of CSS had been parsed and applied. Any remaining CSS would be silently ignored and discarded.

- eyelidlessness 5y agoThis sounds a lot more familiar! Good find.
