I have a problem with Foxfire. When looking at my own website, some of my pages

are totally black about 3/4 the way down the page. I checked my coding and can't see anything wrong. It doesn't do that with Internet Explorer.
Anyone have a clue what the problem is?

If it was a Microsoft-based editor like FrontPage, then the page will render in IE properly, however, Microsoft is not always W3C compliant. In other words Microsoft-based editors write bad HTML code that won't render properly in a W3C compliant browser like Firefox.

Here's a page where you can check your code:

I'll try updating the browser. Thanks a bunch. I use the validator to catch my coding errors.<G>
