How do I get a web page to display without overlapping itself?

In particular I am trying to see this website: http://www.weatherzone.com.au/qld/wide-bay-and-burnett/nanango but it displays with one section overlapping another making it difficult to read all the information.

When I scroll to the section of the 7 day forecast the 7th day cannot be displayed properly as it merges with what is to the right of it - I can only read 6 days. I've tried changing the view, by zooming, but nothing seems to make any difference.

Thank you Cath Phillips

The page seems to be divided into columns. Is the 7th day sticking out of the main column beyond where the rest of the contents of the column appears? Or is advertising from the right column intruding into the main column?

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.

(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache

Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.

Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > Options > Advanced
  • Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced

On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"

If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.

(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:

  • right-click the page and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
  • Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"

In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.

Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

I checked the web page. It is displaying properly.
