Sounds like a bug.  Perhaps forcing
   DIV.title {display:block;}
will fix it.  However, I humbly submit DIV.title appears to be an H3 level,
which will display as a heading level on even non-css browsers.  By changing
your DIV.title elements to H3 elements, along with the associated selectors
in your stylesheet (you may need to adjust the H3 font-size and margin a
touch), you maintain the logical structure of your page, the presentation
you prefer, and cross- and backward-compatibility.
