Hi everyone!

I just stumbled upon a nasty silent (!) limit in IE: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2011/05/14/10164546.aspx

Hitting that limit silently drops all styles beyond the 31st... WTF M$FT! At least they could tell me that they are stupid bit-packers.

So now enough for the rant: My App generates a lot of controls on each screen switch (similar to a tab-control with lots of labels).

Why do I hit that limit: Agility adds <style> tags in view.stylize but does not remove them when destroy is invoked.

Any Ideas for a workaround/patch? I think any serious app would easily hit that limit...

Thanks in advance (after ~6 hours of scanning my own code for bugs)
Joe
