The rendering of forum threads on boardcentral.com is pretty bad on Safari (and FF 3). According to browsershots.org, the rendering is fine on various versions of IE, as well as some others. This is most likely bad coding on their part, but I don't know and I sure would like to be able to use this site without the acrobatics.

I'm seeing one problem - the top part of the site doesn't fit. Is this what you meant, or are there other problems?

The issue is that the list of posts is stacked on top of the frame that shows the post content, and that frame is squashed at the bottom, making it difficult to browse and read the thread.

This has either been fixed or the site has since changed.
