I am cross-posting this since so few people seem to read CSMC.

I can't seem to get this page to render properly in any of my 3 browsers
(Firefox 1.07, iCab & Safari) with Firefox (incredibly) having the most
problems:

<http://www.philamuseum.org/exhibitions/exhibits/schiaparelli/tour/index.
htm>

In Firefox, the entire thing disappears as soon as I click on anything.  
That does not happen in Safari but the text right next to the picture is
too small and distorted for me to read in all of the browsers.  Is it
just me?  What can I do to correct this?  10.3.8, Quicksilver G4.  TIA.

Safari isn't rendering that, Flash is. That's a flash applet in a web page.

I agree.  Your problem is probably an outdated Flash plugin.  I use Firefox
and the site operates perfectly.  Go to the Macromedia.com website and
download the latest Flash Player.

I have found that the single most useful Firefox extension is

flashblock.

Unfortunately Flashblock doesn't yet work for the beta, Firefox 1.5b.

I can't understand why an invalid page written in Flash would cause
problems.  Serious, complain to the people who wrote it.

You might check that you have the Flash plugins for each of your
browsers, and that you have them turned on (I always leave them turned
off).

I thank you and the others too.
