Help.. IE bunges Style!
Need a real whiz to take a look at seadoc.net
I had to change the style a bit and when I did all my titles are "disappearing" now. If your scroll down and back up the re-appear, somewhat. Its as if they are being hidden by the background.
I have had three people look at the CSS and code and they can find nothing. There are no missing DIVs or bad CSS issues.
It's only in IE and not in Firefox, moz, etc.
Help!

Have you tried validating?

I've had this problem before on IE. It's usually the result of bad code -- using spans as block containers and such. Validating helps.

Yes I did. First thing I did.
The CSS pretty much validated just fine (it only identified one error, which I fixed).
The rendered site won't validate due to a bug in the CMS that seems to add and extra P but closes it with a BR. At any rate I ran a stripped down variation through the validator and it went just fine. None of the Elements in that area had any errors in either case.
Someone suggested this might be the infamous Peek-a-boo bug? I have never run into it before, but the behavior acts like it.
Any thoughts.

It was the peek-a-boo bug.
Adding a line-height: specification to the parent container solved the issue.
