That page really doesn't seem complex enough to need all of that JavaScript.

You mind me asking what you need this for? It looks like its some kind of image replace or rollover script yet, none of your images are rollovers?


Also, you might want to start here. W3C Errors

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
    var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
    if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
  var p,i,x;  if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
  if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_nbGroup(event, grpName) { //v6.0
  var i,img,nbArr,args=MM_nbGroup.arguments;
  if (event == "init" && args.length > 2) {
    if ((img = MM_findObj(args[2])) != null && !img.MM_init) {
      img.MM_init = true; img.MM_up = args[3]; img.MM_dn = img.src;
      if ((nbArr = document[grpName]) == null) nbArr = document[grpName] = new Array();
      nbArr[nbArr.length] = img;
      for (i=4; i < args.length-1; i+=2) if ((img = MM_findObj(args[i])) != null) {
        if (!img.MM_up) img.MM_up = img.src;
        img.src = img.MM_dn = args[i+1];
        nbArr[nbArr.length] = img;
    } }
  } else if (event == "over") {
    document.MM_nbOver = nbArr = new Array();
    for (i=1; i < args.length-1; i+=3) if ((img = MM_findObj(args[i])) != null) {
      if (!img.MM_up) img.MM_up = img.src;
      img.src = (img.MM_dn && args[i+2]) ? args[i+2] : ((args[i+1])? args[i+1] : img.MM_up);
      nbArr[nbArr.length] = img;
    }
  } else if (event == "out" ) {
    for (i=0; i < document.MM_nbOver.length; i++) {
      img = document.MM_nbOver[i]; img.src = (img.MM_dn) ? img.MM_dn : img.MM_up; }
  } else if (event == "down") {
    nbArr = document[grpName];
    if (nbArr)
      for (i=0; i < nbArr.length; i++) { img=nbArr[i]; img.src = img.MM_up; img.MM_dn = 0; }
    document[grpName] = nbArr = new Array();
    for (i=2; i < args.length-1; i+=2) if ((img = MM_findObj(args[i])) != null) {
      if (!img.MM_up) img.MM_up = img.src;
      img.src = img.MM_dn = (args[i+1])? args[i+1] : img.MM_up;
      nbArr[nbArr.length] = img;
  } }
}

Sigh IE5,6,7 vs FireFox VS Opera usually is very troublesome.

55% of all browser usage is IE, 30% is firefox and those people are mostly the tech savy of the internet. You design for your demographic and but make sure you are compatible with other browser.

According to WHO exactly ?? The demographic is different for everyone. IE6 users on my sites are around 60%.

Besides, that has NOTHING to do with the original question.

ah yes, I did not finish my point. If most of the browsers on the internet are IE, should his post be titled "IE7 and Firefox display differently , Firefox broken?"

and yes it does have to do witht he original question. I also mentioned that is is about your demographic. You can go all over the internet pull up data that say somewhere around 55% for IE and 30% for firefox. You just proved it. you really like to drive new people away don't you.

Bad idea!

Its not a case of which one is broken. Its a case of which one is rammed down your throat and deemed as "correct"

Firefox, Opera, Safari.. then they would ALL be 'broken' compared to IE6, and to some degree IE7. Since IE is THE LEAST standards-compliant browser out there today, IT is the one that's broken - and MS has to some degree acknowledged that since they finally chose to work WITH the web standards organizations rather than against them when they fixed most of the wrong-doings in IE7 and are promising to fix the rest with IE8.

This is a huge thing that has to be learned when you start designing websites. I too had difficulties when first starting out. Something you will also notice is IE6 breaks even more than IE7. When I design my sites I design for Firefox, IE6, IE7, Safari and Opera.

The first piece of advice is Dreamweaver is a WYSIWYG and it will look different in all browsers because the definitions usually aren't stated clearly. This allows for each browser to load their presets for the different objects. Look into using CSS. CSS can help customize your items and make it look more similar in each browser.

Firefox and a number of other browsers (Safari, IE8, Opera etc.) are standards compliant - that means that they try to adhere to the web standards set out by an authoritative organisation when making their browsers.

IE6, and to an extent IE7, are not standards compliant. In general, it is Internet Explorer that is broken if not displaying something in a similar way to Firefox or other standards compliant browsers. Before you comment on such topics, you should have done research beforehand.
