IE6 - Elements won't disappear

I'm having some major problems trying to get images and paragraphs to disappear in IE6, in my text-only style sheet. I've tested the code in Chrome, FF, Opera, Safari, IE7 & 8, and every thing is working everywhere else... (surprise!) but of course, not in IE6.

You can view a demo with CSS code in the here http://www.kebo.ca/dev/. I've trimmed the code down to the bare essentials.

There are 2 images (line 59, 70) and 2 paragraphs (line 71, 72) that should not be visible. And they are not in all but ie6. i've also tried -margin, -absolute positioning, NOTHING seems to be working!

Note that I've tried every combination of display:none and visibility:hidden to no avail, including making the parent relative and the containing div absolute. no worky!

all advice greatly appreciated... thanks muchly!

The page looks identical to me in Safari 4/Mac and IE6/Win. What is your objective - to hide the image shown on the page?

btw, you have some element nesting issues on your page, run the validator and clear those out before anything else.

The simplest solution is to give all elements you want to hide a class 'hide' and create a selector for it:

.hide { display: none; }

or (to be more cautious):

.hide { display: none !important; }
