Well you do have a mish-mosh of XHTML and HTML, in valid markup.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fboxfly.free.fr%2Ftest%2Ftest_scroll%2F
[Invalid] Markup Validation of http://boxfly.free.fr/test/test_scroll/ -
W3C Markup Validator
So as browsers try to "digest" all this they can come to different
conclusions. First start with valid markup, fix the errors, then see if
you get cross browsers consistency.

Take care,
