Web page images misaligned with menu
I visit a number of particular websites on a daily basis. This morning, one of them appeared to have misaligned images and text. Instead of the images appearing in neat rows and descending the page in a typical grid format, they were starting well below the level of the left-hand menu and were in fact completely off the screen. I had to scroll down to find them. I contacted the website owners who say that they can't see any particular problems at their end. I've cleared the cache and done a Firefox refresh but the problem remains. It is just this particular website, it seems, that has the problem. I have not added any new applications to the PC lately, nor done anything with Firefox. I have Windows 7 and the newest Firefox browser. I've (hopefully) attached a couple of screenshots; in the first one, the images ought to be at the top; in the second image, you can see they are starting way down the page.
