text problem in frontpage

Hi

Thanks for the replies, as a stop gap measure I have reduced the font size
and the text is now readable in medium, smaller and smallest. If I unfix the
height of the table will stop the text running over the pictures and make it
OK?

None of your tables or images should be absolute positioned
- the <div> they are in can be absolute positioned if you are going to use absolute positioning
