What would help more is posting a link to the page that displays the 
problem. If you can't do that, yes, post the code, because we're not 
magicians. We have to see the problem to be able to fix it. :-)

I bet you don't need to be setting z-index on the header at all (I've 
been doing CSS layouts for years and I have yet to ever use the z-index 
property), and I also bet that setting z-index will not make the images 
show up. Setting position: relative on them or giving them layout might. 
Or is it their container that needs layout? I can never remember on this 
bug... Anyway, send the page to the list and me or someone else will help.

By the way, I recommend downloading the latest versions of those 
browsers you mentioned: Firefox 1.5.0.5, Netscape 8.1, Opera 9.0.

Best,
Zoe
