How could I circumvent this problem?
Safari 2.0 also has some problems with you background image. It repeats the image all over the place. That is a known bug, where/when the image used is larger than the container. That bug is fixed in recent WebKit builds. IIRC, Konqueror also had some problems with that bug, although I couldn't reproduce those in Konqueror 3.5.5 using my test cases. Konqueror has another problem: the 'relax' image is positioned some 100px from the left edge. This indicates a lack of clearing previous floats. I removed all your height declarations on the top part of your page (header and menu), and added some clearing elements [*1]; that fixed the problem with floated image. [*1] #header::after, #header ul::after, #menu ul::after {content:"[.]"; clear:both; display:block; height:0; visibility:hidden;} But that doesn't fix the problem with your backgrounds that don't paint correctly. On a local file, onload all backgrounds are painted here, but once I scroll up/down, backgrounds on the top-right part and on the menu vanish. Very strange. I'm not sure what is causing this. Maybe a better way to handle all those backgrounds is using separate files for the various parts, instead of that one huge image file. That would also improve scrolling performance in some browsers. Tested on Konqueror 3.5.5 running on top of OS X 10.4.
