This page uses negative margins all over the place.  It's most likely a bug in
the page, but it should be analyzed.

It appears that the problem that most contributes to the bad layout is that the
whole page is separated into divs that are absolutely positioned.  Mozilla seems
to use a slightly larger font than the author intended and the effects are
disastrous.

still problems with linux build 20020803.  if the font size is small enough, the
page looks 99% ok.  NS 6.2.2 is quite old...
