Thanks for the comments, Georg, Wybe. I've made some corrections to it: notably shifting to percentages and ems for font-sizes; changing to onfocus for the search form.
I do have one question that just came up while I was chatting with a friend: "Does the hreflang attribute on links do anything, really, or is it just a cosmetic thing that no browser does anything with?" (I'm using it on links to materials in Mandarin/Malay to indicate that the content of those sites/pages is in a language other than English.) I think I'll ignore IE Mac for the time being, it seems to be a negligible proportion of my readers anyway. I was mostly worried about how it would render in Safari.
