What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I can't reproduce it either.

tmgardiner: Would it possible for you to download an example and try to debug the
problem? It should work in IE 6.

Another IE 6.0 user with this problem was kind enough to trace the issue, and it
appears that his stripped down virtual machine environment didn't have VML support
which excanvas needs. So I've added the following to the README:

"If it's not working on your development IE 6.0, check that it has
support for VML which excanvas is relying on. It appears that some
stripped down versions used for test environments on virtual machines
lack the VML support."

I'm going to close this bug now, if anyone encounters the other problems with IE
please write again or open a new bug report.

It looks like IE6/Windows 98 (version 6.0.2800.1106) does not work well. First time
loading flot page it asked for VML plugin installation and seemed to install it, but
no charts drawn ever. No script errors either.
I don't know how to check what exactly goes wrong, possibly VML in Windows 98 is
older version than in Windows XP. Point me with instructions how to check it.
