Top / bottom of page resemble a speech by Snoopy's "Woodstock" in MSIE6 as well.
The lines about "JRun Servlet Error" also appear there.
The only difference between how Moz and MSIE renders it, is that text/links
loose formatting in Moz. No links work in either app.

MSIE6 throw an alert icon on the status-bar saying "Error in page".
Mozilla's JS console say "thisLayer has no properties, pointing to errors in
line 230 and 241 of http://www.bmw.com/e65/_js/e65lib.js

So.. the weirdness might just be on BWM's side.

it also happens under Windows running build 2002051006 (RC2), but the one you
submitted seems to be a malformed page... see how many errors the w3c validator
returns by putting the URL in http://validator.w3.org - or just follow this link:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bmw.com%2Fe65%2Fid14%2F3_a91_idrive.jsp&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline

I fear this bug will be marked as a WONT (will never be fixed)

bye all
Francesco
