Tabs don't display right with Safari

[Guest]

I was at a client's office yesterday, sent him to my site (www.restabs.com)
and saw that it did not display correctly on his monitor. Of the 5 tabs
across the top of the screen, the last one (the Contact tab) wrapped to the
next line; in other words that tab displayed on a new line by itself, above
the main window/table, instead of in line with the other tabs as it should.
I've never seen this before. I noticed he had a Mac with Safari browser. What
would cause this? I'm concerned that my site is not being displayed properly
on browsers other than IE. I am using FrontPage 2003 to create the page.
Thanks for your help.

My first comment is that you should always test in as many browsers as you
can when designing and developing a site. This allows you to spot and fix
issues before the customer or users see them. Install and test with FireFox,
Opera and Safari for Windows as well as IE. It's basic good practice.

Now having said that, the page doesn't wrap in Safari for Windows, even if
you reduce the window size right down. (Any Mac users out there!).

The other 'good practice' thing you can do is to validate the page.
(Installing the IE Developer Toolbar gives easy links to the validator
sites). When I do this it shows you have no doctype specified, so I'd
suggest adding on and see if that makes any difference. Validating also
shows that the fp-specific styles aren't valid and I'm not sure what
function they are playing, given that they aren't standard CSS. Can anyone
clarify? Are they Office/IE specific?

Not much help but maybe someone else can add more.
