your body onload is calling function init(), which doesn't exist.

Take a look at FF's Javascript Console. It'll tell you about this error, and a CSS error:
Error: Unexpected end of file while searching for ';' or '}' to end declaration. Unexpected end of file while searching for closing } of declaration block.
Source File: Line: 91

Error: init is not defined
