Details

The pseudoelements :before and :after are supported by Mozilla, but they aren't positioned correctly. This is because these pseudoelements were implemented before CSS2.1 was created, and an error in the original CSS2 spec that was corrected in CSS2.1 wasn't corrected in Mozilla. This makes the :before-:after border mentioned in the URL messed up, and requires cluttering of the page code to fix.

Steps to reproduce:
Go to URL.

Actual results:
A big mess if display:block and a few other things aren't set.

Expected results:
A nice border.

Do you mean that they don't obey 'position', 'float', and some values of 'display'?  If so, this is a duplicate.
If that's the cause of the errors on that page, then yes, although I couldn't find any dupes.

No longer happening in Firefox 3.5+.
