Pages go black

Question

So I have repeatedly cut and pasted text from one page on my
website to another over the past few months once that information
has become outdated. Last night I ran into a problem when doing the
same process I have done for months. Now, every time I paste
something onto this particular webpage, it turns to black in
certain portions making it unreadable. However, if I upload it to
my server and view it on the web everything looks normal.
What is this black out and how can I fix it?

You have some invalid embedded CSS that might be causing it.
For
instance:
#Layer1 {
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0;
width:800;
height:80;
z-index:1;
background-color: #000000;
Only the 0 can be used without a unit. You need to put a one
(px,em,pt...) after 800 and 80 in the above example. It
should look
more like:
#Layer1 {
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0;
width:800px;
height:80px;
z-index:1;
background-color: #000000;
Likewise for layers 2, 3, and 4.
