I'd be happy to have it fixed, but I don't know (and don't really want
to learn) enough about css to fix it myself.

Also, as a general plea for help, if anyone out there who does know
something about HTML+css and who would like to help out with Octave in
some way, we could certainly use some extra hands to work on the web
pages.  We had some people doing that for a while, but they have not
been active lately.  When this sort of thing falls to me, it just
doesn't happen. I can barely remember to update the news and download
pages when there is a new snapshot or release.
