Text Wrap Problem in Firefox

    Hello -

    I have a fairly completed draft website at:

    http://wildrivernet.com/_beefcouncil

    It validates through W3C and looks great in both IE and Netscape. But, there appears to be a serious problem with Firefox on all secondary pages (got around it on the homepage by placing <BR> tags).

    Essentially, all of the main textual content within the pages does not auto word wrap. I've never experienced this before, ever. Can anyone shed some light as to why this is happening and what I might be able to do to stop it?

    Thanks so much!

    Add this in your CSS:
    blockquote { white-space: normal; }

    I might have a look at it again later, that value should be the default.

    Perhaps I see the cause of your trouble. Your page is using tables for layout and several of your TDs have the nowrap attribute on them. I can't identify in instance of this for sure, but one of those may be affecting your content columns.

    An all CSS layout is best if you can do it, because it makes it much easier to troubleshoot the issues.
