Yep, IE crashes badly. But I can't understand what your code is for. The
<link> tag should appear in the <head> section of your document, and you'll
have a hard time displaying a table without a <tr>...</tr> . Cheers!

Subject: Unknown IE bug with css-styles




Heya ppl!,

I was coding around a bit..
When I was testing the html code with internet explorer, the damn thing
started to crash! (Including all other IE's that where open at the same
time)

I've tested it several times (on different machines) and all had the same
problem.

it has something to do with the loading of the css styles from a file in a
<table>

it doesn't seem to be exploitable..
