For the header of your page: the answer is width-less floats. IE 5  
mac follows the CSS 2.0 specifications closely, which require a width  
to be declared on floats. [1]

This is actually a bug in IE 5 Mac [2].
#content-ma has a  'clear:both' rule. This prevents the child blocks  
to float correctly.

Solved by inserting a clearing element before the offending block.

And enough more bug analysis on those pages to fix your problems.
