Firefox Page Display

[Huskiez]

I went to mlb.com and am unable to click certain links because Firefox shows the page wrong. The menu on the left overlaps with the main page, and it looks wrong. Everything displays, it's just that there's overlap, and the overlap of the side menu means you can't click the links that are underneath.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I did not immediately see what is not working, but I believe you. If a Web site uses IE-specific DHTML controls, then Firefox will not recognize them.

I would view the site in IE. The IE View (https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=35&application=firefox) extenstion for Firefox comes in handy for this. It allows you to right click links and specify that you want to view in IE, and you can configure it to always use IE for pages from certian sites.

Thanks for the IEView link, I have been meaning to get that.

But on a side note, the link is hidden.

Do you know how to fix this?

It's not just DHTML controls. Pages laid out with divs and stylesheets (instead of tables) sometimes display differently in IE and Gecko browsers (Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape 6.x, 7.x). It is possible to do this so that it works on both browser families, but some layouts will look fine in IE but have overlapping divs in Gecko browsers. Unfortunately, some web designers still don't bother to see if their pages work in anything other than IE.
