The problem occurs if you use a slightly larger than normal default font.
You can also see the problem if you text-zoom the page.

#content is styled with left:141px (contains the main area of the page)

The left navigation links is contained within a table that is styled with
width 140px, but the problem is that some of the links, for example:
"Veranstaltungen+Seminare", have a minimum width which is wider (given a
large font).  Mozilla does not allow line-break to occur at the '+' like
some other browsers do. Mozilla's layout is correct.

The solution is to add space around the '+' and '-' in the links (most
of them have this anyway) to allow for line-breaks to occur.
