  You gotta take care of CSS since it may overlap each other.

  Which browsers (versions) are you using to test your webpage?

  @BigK - I'm testing on IE-8, Firefox-4 to 8.1, chrome - 11
  Mostly I used to work on Firefox. So mostly testing on firefox versions only!

  @Sada: Make sure you have separate stylesheet for IE. Most of the common IE Bugs have solutions. For eg., peekaboo bug has a solution of putting

  zoom: 1;

  Check the HTML content with the The W3C Markup Validation Service.
  
  Check the CSS content with the The W3C CSS Validation Service.
  
  I've never used a JavaScript validator, but a javascript validator - Google Search turned up some possibilities.

  BTW, on a related note, if you want to test how well your browser complies (not your work), visit the #-Link-Snipped-# page.

  Er... What kind of JavaScript validator?
  
  I suggest you Firebug for Firefox, which helps you to edit the properties and DOM in a fly! 😀

  IE can be weird with CSS and even with JavaScript. It's a hopeless piece of software.
  
  But if your JavaScript in Chrome has problems in Firefox, check your code also!
  It might be the case that Chrome ignores some minute bugs in JavaScript while Firefox, Opera etc are getting stuck at it.
  
  This is just a thought 😀

  Yes, you are right ET. I made a small modification in the Javascript. Now it is working fine on Firefox, Opera and on all the browsers. Firebug and Online HTML Compiler helped me.
  
  Chrome sucks and no need to say about IE, its really waste; don't know why all the government sites prefer IE!

  Er... Why do you say so?
  And also, check this out. In Firefox, check out the Error Console, if you need to detect JavaScript errors, as both Chrome and Firefox follow the same standards. 😀 In Firefox (Windows), the shortcut key is Ctrl + Shift + J! 😀

  I don't know, but I don't like chrome at all. I use chrome only to check the webpages. Firefox and Opera are really good and fast. It's just what I feel.
  And thanks for the key 😀
