But ... you ordered it by typo on the home page. ;-) In the index page the html-validators (w3c and html-Tidy) are so friendly to tell us that the first <li> in the #page_links is closing with another <li> instead of a </li>. The different error handling of browsers is giving different shows. The one browser is completing to the prescribed </li>´s for XHTML, so adding an extra separator, the other browser is doing nothing but adding a space. > [...] > HTML > --------------------------------------- > > <div id="page_links"> > <ul class="linksbar"> > <li class="first"> > <a href="faq/index.html">Search A-Z Index</a> > <li> <<<--- here he is! :-) > <li> > <a href="faq/top_faqs.html">Most Asked Questions</a> > </li> > [...] > > I don´t have an IE5/mac, so no idea why that is happening. Maybe you can hard code a separator `letter` | in the html instead of a border line in css, to avoid strange effects?
