Gotta love Web2.0
But how come it didn't change on my home computer which runs windows 7 64 bit with Firefox? It's the same thing as my work set up but only my work set up has changed.

Thats a good question... something caught up in the cache? Firefox upgrade?

A number of sites have different code sets for different browsers. Some browsers (even version releases) may not support current web standards, causing the website to display differently based on the capability of the browser you are using. Are you running the same revision of Firefox on both machines?
