Am not 100% certain, since only tested with IE tester. Still this needs to be checked. Believed in a theme issue, but neither theme shows the contextual links in dreaded old IE6.
Forgive me if this is fixed in Alpha 4 since am using Alpha 3.

line 76 of contextual.css:

.contextual-links-region:hover a.contextual-links-trigger,

In IE6 :hover is only supported on A elements.

We can't fix that...
Or can we...

You "can" use the site without contextual links. It just isn't that usable...

Well I guess you can create pseudo hover behaviour via JavaScript like the whatever hover module http://drupal.org/project/csshover does, but it needs to be fixed in core.

what happens if you disable javascript, do we have to show the contextual links and don't hide them?

I guess without Javascript the contextual links do not work anyway.

I drupal not supposed to work with or without javascript?
So if that is an exception on that rule why can't we make IE6 an exception to?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to push away a IE6 solution. Just trying to discuss this

@aspilicious, I think you should open a seperate issue about contextual links not working when Javascript is disabled (we might come up with a "graceful degradation" solution).

@casey: is the solution I was shooting at feasible? I know you are the Javascript Ninja ;)

pseudo hover is going to cost lots of code. I don't think it is worth it.

#849926: links wrapped in .contextual-links-wrapper divs are not accessible at all via keyboard alone also problems with screen readers will make contextual work in IE6 when using keyboard navigation. I'd say that is sufficient for IE6.

We don't care about IE6 anymore.

Bye bye :)
