I was impressed by BN's skills (thanks BN for going to trouble),
and assume it works for the zoom problem that I cannot see. I
notice it fails Mac IE (only the words "terms of trade" appear
(very roughly in the right place but preceded by nothing else in
the list!).

Not greatly tempted though for the simple reason that it looks to
me to be very tactical or else too tricky to troubleshoot and
adapt to different situations.

This zoom business is a bit of a worry eh?

Anyway, I gathered the suggestions into the latest:

(Ben C said something that made me mess about with styling in the
first example... so thanks Ben for the trigger)
