Hi, I just want to report a problem with the home page.
I use Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803

From my browser I see an overlap of the Courses menu covering the Menu above it in blue. Do I need a newer browser?

And this is what I see

The code for the banner and menus is pretty much plain HTML and CSS.  I use IE 6 and all looks fine.  I do not have Mozilla installed.

Do other Mozilla users see the same problem?

I normally use Mozilla Firefox as well, and have noted that this situation depends on the size of the text size used (adjustable under "view").  In fact, with the largest text size, the hyperlinks to go to the forum et al seem to become inoperable.  The "cleanest" view of the homepage in Firefox seems to come with the smallest font size.

Having just checked with Internet Explorer, I see there's a bit of overlap with the largest text size, but that the hyperlinks on the home page still work normally.

Best regards.

Ah, thanks for the explanation, daristani.  I now know what I need to do to fix; I just don't know when I'll get to it!  Hopefully soon....

Changing the text size does not adjust the position of the layer.

But I think I have a solution!
If you put the header division after the menu division, then the menu will underlap the header. So the menu layer will be underneath the blue layer instead of on top.

I tried it on my computer and it works fine.

Thanks for the quick fix!  I've updated the site, so let me know if you still have trouble.
