What device are you using? It looks fine on both of my computer monitors, my laptop, and my tablet.

I am using a Toshiba laptop that has win7 64 and mozilla nightly as a browser, it works fine on all websites, but on that one I get 4 letter words that fill the screen...wrap around, totally unreadable.

It appears that HTML has a problem. I will now try it with IE.

It appears that the HTML has an error that IE ignores, but drives Mozilla Nightly totally crazy. Thanks for replying.
