When I access http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare6/zatoichi-2003.htm, the
page around the "DVD Menus" section (that text appears in the page) has some
text that overlays another part of the page.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare6/zatoichi-2003.htm
2.Search for the text "DVD Menus" on that page.
3.See the overlaying text.

Actual Results:  
The text on the page overlays other text.

Expected Results:  
The text should not overlay other text.

This renders fine in Opera 7.53 on Windows.

The DIV containing that text has a set height of 99px, since the text takes more
space than that, it overflows out of the div and therefore out of the table. The
attribute just needs to be removed.

so does that mean that IE is ignoring the height attribute?  it renders fine in
IE.  a similar thing looks like it's happening with

Yes, IE ignores the CSS specifications by ignoring the height rule when the
contents don't fit in the allotted space.

This seems to work fine now
