Navigator 4.x is, at four years and counting, just too old to keep up with most things that will be done on the Internet of the future. There's nothing wrong with Navigator 4.x, but you probably don't want to use it in this area. Consider it a friendly warning. Check with the W3C for information on CSS-compliant browsers; Netscape 7 and above, Opera 6 and above, and Camino and Safari (both for Apple OS X only) are CSS-compliant enough for this website.
