I don't know why this happens, although I'm sure it's a CSS problem.  If
I remove the tag:

	<link rel="stylesheet" href="/adcstyle.css" type="text/css">

the problem goes away.

: using something else just so I can reliably read pages.

I'm for faster page renders too.  But I also would like as many bug
fixes as possible, as I seem to crash OmniWeb at least once per hour of
solid use.  However, I think most of crashes come from Quartz.  :)
