if you save the URL locally and remove the script tags the page lays out correctly. I changed the summary to reflect this.
Ack! This page uses CSS positioned elements, but accesses them using the document.layers array. Troy, we might be able to get away with not supporting the LAYER tag, but we're going to have to bend over backwards to do the right thing w.r.t. the DOM.
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.

INVALID. LAYER, ILAYER, document.layers[] not supported in Gecko/Nav5. Closed. Notified reporter and site owner via template at http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/fixit/layer.html
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Marking verified invalid per last comments.
Moving all [LAYER] bugs to Evangelism component for tracking and open-source evangelism by mozilla community members of sites that need to upgrade to support web standards such as HTML 4.0 (instead of LAYER/ILAYER) and the W3C DOM (instead of Nav4 document.layers[] or IE document.all()). Sites should be lobbied to do the upgrade using the email templates that are linked to from http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs . When a site's owner has confirmed receipt of the message requesting an upgrade, the bug should be marked with the keyword evangelized to indicate that evangelism for that bug is complete. When the site finishes the upgrade and supports standards, the bug should be closed.
