Some font and modules appear abnormal on my website when I open it with Firefox.

[Emmanuel Kesse]

Hello dear experts:

I am currently building a website with help from a web developer. We noticed a problem on the website every now and then when we open it with the latest version of Firefox. This problem is not evident all the time but 1 out of 3 times, whenever I open my website with Firefox, some of the text or fonts get abnormally large or super-sized. Some modules also blow up and get out of shape.At first, I thought the problem would heal itself but for months now it has not gone away and it keeps haunting my website.
The interesting thing here is I never see this problem with any other web browser apart from Firefox. All the other web browser work very well with my website.

[REMEMBER THAT THE PROBLEM DOES NOT SHOW EVERY TIME YOU VISIT MY WEBSITE WITH FIREFOX. IN ORDER TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM, YOU WILL NEED TO KEEP REFRESHING KESSESPAGE.COM OVER AND OVER [ABOUT 5 - 6 TIMES] IN ORDER TO SEE A SAMPLE OF THE PROBLEM. THUS IF IT DOES NOT MANIFEST ITSELF AT THE VERY FIRST TRY.]

Another problem I noticed on the site with Firefox is that some white patches appear on the corners of the website whenever you click the " SELL" tab at the top of the page. Again, none of the other browsers show that stain apart from Firefox.

Someone help me find a solution to this, please.
Thank you,

Have you tried explicitly setting a font-size for the offending elements?

The patches are appearing because of the placement of your rounded corner images in the div #content_column _wide.

The problem is not restricted to the fonts only as you can see from the jpeg demo attached to my previous posting. It also affects some modules as well. Example is the "More Featured Listings" module.
Can you give me a more easier explanation on what to do?

On the patches issue, I believe you are right in pointing out the rounded corner problem. I will have my web developer have that fixed. He is not that sure of the super-sized module and font size.

First two immediate problems. 1) You use the xml declaration, which is appropriate, but IE<8 goes into quirks mode cause it doesn't know what to do with that. 2) You are declaring XHTML version 1.1 which is an XML application only and you are serving HTML. If you must use an XHTML doctype, use the version 1.0 one.

Second obvious problems: you use the 'font-decoration' property in CSS but there is no such thing. You probably meant 'text-decoration'. Also, you have 191 html errors. Most of them are missing 'alt' attributes but there are others that need fixing.
