Great, thanks.

Yes, I'm aware of that. Actually, Mozilla is my browser of choice, so I
saw that one coming, although to be frank I have no idea what to do
about it. As you said: every time the screen is resized the display of
that box flickers. Annoying, but not a show stopper, especially
considering it's only on one page.

Ah yes, that's the "alpha" part of alpha test, meaning the site is
structurally and cosmetically ready to be checked, but the content is
not 100% finished. Most of the captions throughout will need to be
(re-)written in earnest now. I guess that's the "beta" phase, expect a
full launch around "epsilon" :)

Thanks for your help, Karen.
