Well, for the link you just gave us, you have *41* HTML validation errors, and *86* css validation errors. You have to get those resolved first. I find that when my CSS and HTML validate, I have very few problems across the current browsers, across the platforms, and I'm a die-hard Mac user who also tests on Windows on my virtual machines. That's not to say you won't encounter problems, but you'll encounter much fewer of them.
