This is a pretty weird one! It's not a HTML or CSS problem, it
appears to be caused by bad (or at least unsupported) character
encoding! I've never seen such an error have this effect before.

You have some Japanese characters early on the page. Encoding errors
with these make the HTML document to be not well-formed, and so
different parsers can recover from this differently. Firefox appears
to do it in such a way that it no longer correctly applies the CSS. (I
know no more details than this - I'd love to hear if it's a known
problem)

You're serving this page as UTF-16. I suggest converting it to UTF-8
and serving it with a HTTP content-type for UTF-8. From my local
testing, this is enough to make it start "working" in the expected
manner.

This internal meta tag is (as always) pointless. In this case it's
also simply wrong. Remove it.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">



There are also numerous places where the code isn't "wrong", but it's
not as well-structured as it could be.

<div class="menubgpichighlight">
<div class="menutext"><a href="index.htm">Home</a></div>
</div>
<div class="menubgpic">
<div class="menutext"><a href="introduction.htm">Introduction</a></
div>
</div>

could be done better and simpler something like this:

<ul class="menubgpic" >
<li class="highlight" ><a href="index.htm">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="introduction.htm">Introduction</a></li>
...


Similarly:

<div class="uldiv">
<ul>
<li>Products at Kuliza are designed by gurus</li>

could be:
<ul class="a-better-class-name-that-indicates-function-not-markup" >
<li>Products at Kuliza are designed by gurus</li>

You have 27 HTML errors. You also have 1 CSS error and 6 CSS warnings.
Fix those and ask again.

Won't fix a thing about this issue though.
