I had a play around with the page and this is the most concise solution so
far:
#nav {
position: absolute;
left: 15px; top: 95px;
width: 120px;
margin: 15px 0;
}
That works in IE6, Firefox 1.0 and Opera 7.54 on PC. The original and new
versions both break in IE5 and
...and of course, the way to fix the table overflow in IE5 is to set
width:auto; and then Voice Family Hack to width:100% for everyone else.
That should make it work for the PC browsers - any Mac users still having
trouble?

I was definitely serious. I miss out on so many excellent online

Now you've got me thinking. Is there anything similar to the Talking
Newspapers service for internet content? Should there be? A group of
fast typing volunteers/proofreaders could provide transcripts to popular
non subtitled items. We'd barely be scratching the surface of what needs
to be done
I think it's a fantastic idea. While I don't have any (notable)
vision or hearing problems, if there is a text transcript availible,
I'll choose that 10 times out of 10.

Validating the source sorts out the problem. There's a missing img end

Hi,
Well at first glance I'd say the division itself has 5 px applied on all
sides as per the #qotd rules. The extra white space is most probably a mix
of margin and line-heights on the paragraphs you use within the div.

No, Ian's right. You have 5px padding all the way around, and then you
have the margins of the paragraphs contained within #qotd. Add
#qotd p { margin:0; padding:0; }
to you CSS.

Sorry to disagree, but your CSS rules for the division are as follows:
#qotd {
background: #fff;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

padding: 5px; -- Applies 5px on all sides
