I am not a programmer, but, I thought I could help, by using the IE Tab add-on, which using the IE engine in Firefox. I, also, enter the site in IE8.
Results:1. Firefox 3.0.11: page too large for content, and, run on of certain words. background color.
2. IE Tab in FF3.0.11 and 3.5: blank page
3. IE 8: blank page

What version IE is working? I get nothing in IE8!

I am reconfirming that IE8, and its engine displays a blank page, at the given website. Seamonkey1.1.7, and Google Chrome look the same as Firefox3.x. I am sure that other related browsers, like Netscape7.2 will look the same. It bothers me that IE8 displays nothing.

There are may errors discovered by http://validator.w3.org/.
Another resource could be http://www.w3schools.com/.

To add to PaulD's suggested links, the validator link tells how many errors in W3C compliance are found. The second link tells one how to create a compliant page.
The second link explains, in part, why I failed to get anything with IE8. IE8 is W3C compliant, unlike earlier IE versions, which made it look good when compared to other browsers. I could not determine why I got nothing at all with IE8. A lot of work will be needed to straighten things out.

I am interested in the name of your enterprise.

The Avestas are the religious literature of Zoroastrianism. There is the Zend Avesta, from which I believe I own several volumes.

I believe also that the Avestas are related to the Vedas of Hinduism, somehow through the Gathas.

Any connection?

Richard,
you have a point, but a simple Google search shows a number of discrepancies, in regard to the spelling. Looking at the website, which is next to impossible to read, I can see that it is a business enterprise, spelled ZenaVesta, and I don't see any mention of Avesta

Fulvio-

You are right, of course, I was just guessing.

BTW, if you look at the user string, you will see that I am using Safari here. While at work, I need to keep up with my home email, and FF crashes on that site. Neither IE nor SeaMonkey will "remember" email addresses in my ISP's web mail site; but, Safari does it very nicely. So while at work, I am getting SillyDog notices in the web email, and staying in Safari to respond. For everything else, I am using FF, which is my default.

Even if the problem gets solved, I may stay with Safari for this site, as it renders the refreshed page much faster.

I, just, reinstalled Safari, and I have yet to see any advantage with it. I did notice that it made itself default, and, I , surely, did not see any question asked.
Now, I will have to see if 4.0.2 has corrected the issues which I had with 4.0.
