The flicker disappears if you simply remove the bold from the hover state. Why not remove the weight change? No matter what, the weight change is gonna move things around, try enlarging the text to eyesight impaired size and see what I mean. Personally, I think the color change on the hover

Yes, removing that line with overflow:auto; removes the flicker, but it also breaks the design. From the perspective of the current project, I'd rather loose the font-weight:bold. If I can keep both then the client will be happy. Nick Cowie wrote: It is overflow: auto; in .clear .module_bg

Does anyone have any experience with a bug in Firefox when using a:hover {font-weight:bold;}? When the cursor moves over the link, other elements on the page shift or even flicker over other elements. Basically, the page is in chaos on :hover. Fixes, suggestions, guesses appreciated!
