What are the Issues to be considered when making a IE6 compatible CSS?

Don't do it. Time to move on. Do you still design for Netscape 4 css too?

Usually it's clients wanting IE6 because the IE6 is the standard browser in the organization. A standard that never changes because it would cost money to do so.

@fforw IE6 has 24 unpatched vulnerabilities in as of February 9, 2010. These vulnerabilities, which include several "moderately critical" ratings, amount to 17% of the total 144 security risks. Organizations which don't update are exposing themselves to unnecessary risks that would cost money, too. http://secunia.com/advisories/product/11/ By refusing to support IE6, this encourages organizations to upgrade if their users cannot use a larger proportion of websites.
