Hey thanks. I'm using Firefox 15 on Windows 7 too, and yet I'm not seeing the trouble on my PC. I tried it on my wife's laptop (Firefox 15 Windows 7), and fine there too.

Bruce There are three basic methods for hitting mobile: 1/ Do nothing special for mobile. 2/ Make a desktop site and a separate version for mobile-- two different addresses 3/ Create a desktop responsive site that will work in desktop, tablets, and mobile handsets from one address. You are using method 1. This method puts you and your client at the whim and mercy of any particular device. In your case, high-end Android is not cooperating with the way the page is coded. And I'd venture to guess that those mobile devices that are cooperating are probably doing so in an unreadable and unusable manner.

Re: [css-d] Droid RAZR problem
Thanks for the tip. I cleared most of the errors, other than the alt attributes (which I will get to later), and still the same problem on the RAZR. I can't imagine that missing alt attributes would cause this. Any other suggestions? _http://www.sportsmansresource.com/flocalxnewyork_1a.htm_ (http://www.sportsmansresource.com/flocalxnewyork_1a.htm) Thanks in advance.

Re: [css-d] Droid RAZR problem
Well, I still see 29 errors, Bruce, of which approximately 50% are the use of unescaped where amp; is required. I doubt whether fixing these will improve the RAZR problem, but as I have no idea what a Droid RAZR is, I am not going to be able to be of much further help.

Re: [css-d] Droid RAZR problem
It's not geared toward any specific browser or mobile device, and it seems fine in every browser and mobile device, except that one phone - the Droid RAZR. If having a device-width meta tag or a 480 media query is something that will help, then I'll admit it's new to me and something I should learn about.
