I'm not 100% sure that this is a bug, but: A.date:hover { CURSOR: ne-resize; } is shown very differently in Mozilla than in IE. Test it at: http://www.activewin.com/frames/frmhome.shtml Move your mouse over the links in the menu to the left. In IE the cursor becomes a arrow pointing up to the right, while in Mozilla the cursor becomes something that looks like a resize arrow...
ne-resize should, according to the spec, be the cursor that indicates that the top-right corner is being moved (ie, the window is being resized at that corner). From http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/ui.html#cursor-props: e-resize, ne-resize, nw-resize, n-resize, se-resize, sw-resize, s-resize, w-resize indicate that some edge is to be moved. For example, the 'se-resize' cursor is used when the movement starts from the south-east corner of the box. So the cursor shown should be the same as one would see if one were to put the cursor on the resize handle at the top right of the window... Also, the way such a cursor looks is not specified and is completely platform-dependent.
Boris is right. The cursor follows the spec more closely in Moz than in IE. Closed as Invalid.

VERIFIED that the arrow IE uses on that site is not the arrow that ne-resize should look like.
