The left navigation bar of this site uses visibility=hidden to hide (collapse) a
set of menu bars. The text shows up jumbled together because the hidden status
is ignored. There also seems to be a problem with the positioning of the elements.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The text appears all jumbled together, and hidden portions of the menu are not
hidden.

Expected Results:  
The menu should display only Home, Product Information, Workstation, Webstation,
Get Started, Register, and Contact us. Clicking Product Information or Get
Started should reveal more menu selections. These selections should be hidden
otherwise.

var n = (document.layers) ? 1:0;
var ie = (document.all) ? 1:0;

Mozilla will never come up true in any browser test they do, so the script breaks.

You might write to the site and ask them to update their script.
