What would stop a simple link from working just because www. was not used before the domain name?

Example:
http://dreamstreetms.org/
left menu doesn't work

http://www.dreamstreetms.org/
left menu works here.

Thanks ahead for your reply

Both work fine for me also. I'm using FF 3.0.6. Do you have any FF add-ons installed?

I'm pretty sure that it's a DNS Zone issue on the server. If it keeps happening you should talk to your web hosting company. I've found that if the appropriate records aren't on the server specific to "www" then sometimes it won't work. Just a thought!

IF it was DNS the site would not even load up.

The problem is possibly because of the use of document relative addressing "../../path" rather than root relative and the Flash being hardcoded to use the "www" version
