You have this code in your styles, hidden from Firefox:
thead tr {
position: absolute;
/* top: expression( this.parentNode.offsetHeight - 6 ); */
}

I guess that means that the tr in the thead is not taking up any space
(normal side-effect of position:absolute), so the tbody starts at the
top of the table, and is therefore covered by the thead.
