The church I used to belong to has recently "overhauled" its web site.
www.ccrc.on.ca

Using Firefox, many of the functions appear to be disabled, and the site can
hardly be read.
Using MS IE, this problem is not apparent.

In asking the following question, I'm making an assumption (not always a smart
thing to do, I admit):

What is wrong with the construction of that site that Firefox does not render it
well?

Thanks!

Everything seems ok here on FF 2.0.0.1 ...

Correction - everything except the blue pull down menu thing on the LHS,
that doesn't function.

the site has been designed with the devil browser [IE] in mind and
nothing else.

Frank, I also use FF 2.0.0.1 - your reply would seem to indicate that you did
not compare how the site is rendered by Firefox against how it is rendered by
MS-IE.
Am I correct?

Looking at it with Firefox the whole graphic accross the top is missing, and
only the bottom millimeter of the sub-menu (when hoovering over the arrows in
the main menu) shows at the very top.

Can anyone help me with what to suggest to the "designer" to correct the
problem, other than "the site has been designed with the devil browser [IE] in
mind and nothing else."?

Thanks!

for starters, you can click on Help, then "Report Broken Website".
This will take you to the Moz Tech-Evangelism poeple:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/tech-evangelism/ where you can learn
all about them.

Let them work with the website owners.

Like Peter.Potamus.and.so.on wrote: it's IE based. The maker of the site
clearly did not check with other browers or did a poor job on that check.

One option is to change your religion. Just how important is Firefox to you?
