Which is why I prefaced the post with "Although clearer proper HTML
would not cause this issue". Removing the CSS, the div, the table, etc all
cause this code to not crash IE. (BTW, it crashes IE6 politely - but IE8
crashes really hard). This code started from a crash ifrom a >800 line HTML
file and I narrowed it down to being this combination of structures that
produces a crash.

I'm not looking for a solution on how to fix this - I thought the IE dev
team deserved to know a bug (not relying on JS or ActiveX) that would cause
the browser to break.
