    Please use FireFox to check out this page:

    http://www.cyberbitten.com/

    Do you see the text near the top that reads "Be a part of the movement!" ?

    Okay, now go look at the same page in IE 7 (possibly also IE 6, I don't know).

    The block of text is gone. I can't figure out why.

    I've validated this page, save for the Flash. I have asked our Flash programmer to get back to us with some valid HTML for the Flash. Aside from the HTML for the Flash video player, the page is valid. So why won't the intro text appear? It appears fine in FireFox. What am I missing?

    It works on IE6, but besides that I can't help you.

    Just for the heck of it, try removing the comments before the div. Who knows, it might be the third occurrence of that particular bug in less than two days…

    I asked about this on comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html. This reply worked, much to my surprise:

    "Remove:
    <!--Header //-->

    Putting something before the doctype may throw IE into quirks mode,
    which would also be the reason it does not center in IE."
