    On a visit to a webpage today, part of the text seemed to be overlaid with other text, and/or graphics. Is this the fault of my browser? I have IE 5.1. I checked the View>Source and found out that it was a Netscape page but have never had that trouble viewing a page till just the past few days. Two friends also checked that page today. One has IE and the other uses Netscape. Neither of them had any problem with the page and said everything was in place as it should have been. Are there some settings or something that could be causing mine to do this?

    Thanks!

    The page is using a "page reposition script" that is mis configured. It's also using absolute positioning of page elements which are conflicting with the reposition script.

    To view this correctly in your browser you must have active scripting enabled for that domain. I have it in my restricted sites zone to do away with the popups a cookies from that domain.
