Your CSS isn’t valid. Cleaning it up may fix the problem, or at the very least, make it easier to diagnose/fix.

thanks! I validated it and things are working better (although it still takes a few clicks to get the ‘search’ button to work…not sure if I’m the only one having this problem here?)
That happens sometimes with CSS buttons. I just hit the ‘enter’ key all the time. ^_-
yeah, css is quite an interesting sort of beast to figure out all the little intricacies (sp?)..
Actually, one ‘final’ question, after validating the CSS for the menu I found it doesn’t work on Mozilla in Windows!
It’s these little things that drive me nuts….
I’d jump to say “no possible”. Mozilla in WIndows runs the same exact rendering engine as Mozilla in Mac OSX. Are you sure the setting on the Windows Mozilla are any different than your Mac copy? Maybe you need to empty the cache?
I emptied the cache….The settings should be the same, there isn’t anything I did to affect how it would render css, for instance.
Does Mozilla do anything weird with absolutely positioned divs? This is the only thing I can think of.
I don’t believe so, at least I’ve never seen any problems. Are you using the latest version of Mozilla (v1.7.3)?
Yep, v1.7.3 of Mozilla and Version 1 of Firefox..If you have a Windows machine running it would be great to see if you’re getting the same thing I am –

I appreciate all of your help!
I do have an old PC lying around. It has FireFox v1, but it doesn’t have Mozilla and I’m stuck on 56k until next week (finally!). But, if I get some time tomorrow, I’ll fire up the ‘ol 1 hour download and see what Mozilla shows of your site. Still, it’s rather confusing. Mozilla’s rendering engine is exactly the same on all platforms, and FireFox’s rendering engine is very similar to Mozilla’s.
ok, thanks, that would be fantastic…I’m hacking away with EnginSite Editor for PHP while on the holidays. Hopefully I’ll figure it out.
p.s. when i changed the positioning to ‘relative’ it was fixed…but this is still odd b/c it doesn’t look right when it’s relative, the positioning is all off.
arrrrgh.
