Well, I just opened up a tracker for web site bugs.

The background image flashes but then disappears in
MSIE 6.

In Mozilla the image loads but the cell alignments do not
look right.

See what you can do, alright?

Thanks,
Matt Hall

    MSIE 6 - believe this has to do with the javascript resizing of
    the background image to fit the available client-height.
    Thought I had it working, but was wrong. will look into it.

    Moz - I'm not sure exactly what you mean by cell alignments.
    Perhaps you could illustrate with a screenshot?

    Have lowered priority of the task; more important is to get
    the content for the site up; IMO display issues are really
    secondary at this point.

    MSIE 6 - a quick check of compatibility tables suggests that
    the problem arises because I'm using transitional XHTML
    (sf.net's news includes are not compliant, hence transitional),
    and have specified the doctype explicitly, causing IE6 to go
    into 'standards' mode. Plugged the main page, if this works, I'll
    fix it for all pages.
