Having had time to look at this.. I've found at least one major problem... it doesn't render correctly in Opera on Linux. (Unfortunately, IIRC this list strips attachments, although I'll try sending a screenshot. If it doesn't get through, contact me and I'll send them directly). The main problem is the download button. In Opera, it is pushed over to the left, and overlaid by the other buttons on that side. All that is visible is a green line between the blue buttons, and a little green protrusion, centred between them. It renders correctly in Firefox though. It is also way out of whack in Safari... everything (and I mean everything!) is pushed over to the left, the "OpenOffice.org 2.0 is out now" text is on the left and between the blue buttons and the download button. In this browser at least the page is unusable in the extreme. I've unfortunately lost the link to the staging server (could someone post it again please?), so I can't comment on what's on there... However, I can look at everything in several different browsers (Opera and firefox on Linux, Safari and IE on Mac, and soon Opera on Mac.... > > First; why have I done this?
