Details

(Whiteboard: [sitewait]) 

Text overlaps on the URL listed above.  Also occurs on various and a lot of
other pages.  Check out mail.lycos.com  Also check adobe.com, text seems
squished together.

Mozilla 1.2a  Build ID:  2002091014
The page is designed so that the text will overlap if the font is bigger than a
certain size.  The only reason this does not happen in IE/Windows is because of
a CSS rendering bug (it does happen in IE/Mac).

The site was created with the home product of homestead

    business using our simple Web page building tools." …

It does heavy usage of frameset and frames and has position absolute all over the place.  

<frameset marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" border="no" width="0" rows="100%,*"><frame name="f1" src="study~ns4.html"><frame name="f2" noresize=""></frameset>
