I had this posted some time ago but didn't get any recommendations or
confirmation if the problem is indeed a bug in IE6. Here is the problem
description once more:

I have found that when a button has a text longer than 18 characters it is
no longer displayed correctly in IE6. Here is some example code that you can
test (By the way, buttons are rendered correctly in other -non MS- browsers)
(change '[' and ']' to '<' and '>' for HTML)

--- code ---

[button type="button" onclick="window.open
('testButtonCorrectRendering.htm','_self');" ]123456789012345678[/button]

[button type="button" onclick="window.open
('testButtonIncorrectRendering.htm','_self');" ]1234567890123456789012345[/b

--- code ---

Please go ahead and test this code in your IE6 (while being in Windows XP
using the Luna-XP style for display), you will see a normally rendered
button and a somewhat funny looking button. Any input is appreciated, thanks
in advance.
