The home page. But it's with XP and with DPI set to 125 percent of normal. I haven't found any other pages so far that have this problem. Some of the price lists are quite a bit more readable than they used to be, so that much is good. It seems I don't often run into this problem any more. It used to be something I grumbled about frequently. John Gorentz At 04:56 PM 11/10/2008, Kramer, Jack wrote: >I don’t see any overlapping text in Firefox 2 on Windows Vista SP1.

Reminds me of the old saying that I just now made up: "A word is worth a thousand pictures." Probably not a huge issue with this particular page, though. Maybe somebody will someday make a browser with a Ctrl-F that searches the alt tags, too. (Or maybe somebody has already done it.) > >John Gorentz
