I do use FireFox and Safari occaisionally, mostly just to check my code is working ok in other browsers. FireFox is much less forgiving than IE. You can get away with 'non compliant' code in IE, but FireFox will display a mess. I can't see the point of that, especially as the vast majority of users are on IE. I know some people refuse to use Microsoft products as some kind of rebellion against their market hegemony. It's worth noting that Google (which owns and distributes FireFox) is becoming just as much a corporate behemoth as MS ever has been. Anyway; glad you fixed it and thanks for sharing the solution.
