HTML not rendering in Safari, Chrome

Hi All,

My html page can render and display fine in IE and FF but not so much in Safari and Chrome. I'm guessing that something may be wrong with my javascript. Any help or direction with this is much appreciated.

Thanks!
tone

One thing I would like to point out that your code won't pass validator as javascript nowadays is written as below:

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[

// content of your Javascript goes here

// ]]>
</script>

Also, it would be worth checking that all the tags are properly closed as Safari and Chrome follow strict rules.

All is good, all tags are closed, t's crossed and i's dotted but still can't render in Safari or Chrome. Any other suggestions? Thanks

For Mr. ToneDigital: is this a function to be loaded in order to make a generic Javsscript code working with every browser? If so, at which event should it be associated? And loaded also in iframed pages?
