    Default Safari table rendering bug/issue

    If you go to http://www.wdbike.biz on a Macintosh using Safari (or IE for mac), you will see that you have to scroll down the page to get to the main content. Somehow Safari thinks that it should go below the left sidebar. Every other browser, and Dreamweaver too for that matter, sees the table properly.

    I have been beating my head against the wall on this one for longer than I care to explain here. Any ideas? Has anybody had an issue like this and resolved it successfully? Note I have checked with the W3C tools to make sure there are no spacing/table errors in the code. I have turned off the right sidebar (Safari just makes the center column wider). I have set the center column to 75%, and then back to 100% when it looked even worse. I've also tried a few million other things I can't think of offhand. Is there some Safari specific spacing rule I have overlooked?

    Thanks in advance, Keith

    for one thing, you've got a float AND text-align around lines 70-75 in the stylesheet.css.

    And Firefox displays in the way you described as well.

    I'm on pc with Firefox and it's fine ... in fact, I've never had the problem! I'll look into the float/text-align.

    Just looked at it. Still fine for me with FF. And the float/text align is for the header for placement in the top cell only - I don't see how it could affect the rendering of the page table? Thanks for the input BTW.

    OK, I am finding a couple of pages that are doing it in FF now, thanks for the head's up. This was not the case before I tried to fix this issue, and (at least) only occurs for certain pages.

    Days of work only to screw it up for a second browser, and not fix it for the first ... Somebody please help me!
