[Javascript] Layers

*** Don't use a browser detect, use a support detect. ***

This function does not work in Netscape 6, Opera and Konqueror while they 
can easily handle the script. Why don't you give them a chance to execute 
it, too?

For information on how to avoid this, see 
http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js/index.html?support.html (for general info about 
support detection) and
http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js/index.html?dom.html (the three DOMs you need 
for cross-browser DHTML).

This is really a very important topic, so please read these pages carefully.

The flaw is not in the JavaScript, probably in the style sheets.

Step 1) Remove all border declarations from the style sheets, see if that 
helps.
Step 2) If it doesn't, try to reduce the number of layers (or do you have 
only 2?)
Step 3) If it still doesn't work, post a URL so we can take a look.
