Hi Bruno, Thank you for your help, it's greatly appreciated. I'm currently on a computer with FF2 or IE so i can't see the solution at work, but I'll take a look at home later. Please leave your solution up!
I've looked at your faked example but I don't understand how it works at all. It is technique explained anywhere or did you create it yourself? It looks like my best bet, if I wish to keep my layout, is to feed your solution to FF3/safari via server side sniffing and resort to the current solution in all other cases.
