I can see
   style="color: #7b2317; font-family: courier new, courier; font- 
weight:bolder;">
in the source code.

I'm not going to go back to that page to check the details (it isn't  
exactly work safe), but if I remember correctly, this means you've  
specified a background colour for the body element, and a color that  
is the same as that background colour for another element (without  
specifying a background colour for it).

Expression a proprietary Microsoft extension and is not part of CSS,  
any use of it is invalid.
