On wp.erikwiss.com the div #slogan is not visible in FF, where it shows perfectly in all other browsers. This has something to do with positioning, of that I'm sure. But how do I fix this problem?

This is the CSS found by FF's inspect element: (#slogan is supposed to be centered both vertically and horizontally

  1. slogan {
   height: auto;
   text-align: center;
   position: fixed;
   width: 100%;
   left: 50%;
   margin: 0px 0px 0px -50%;
   z-index: 2;
   top: 50%;
   transform: translateY(-50%);

Firefox shows that section further down because of top:50% (50% of the length of the enveloping div #skrollr-body).

There is also a problem with the tags in that section. The page source flags the closing </a> in red as 'end tag 'a' violates nesting rules' (hover red code to see an informative tooltip). The closing </p> tags are flagged as well. So you need to check that part of the code. For some reason it doesn't show in the Inspector.

<div id="slogan">
<a href="#what-we-do" class="js-coll-local-link"></p>
<h1>
Det är dags att ge din musik det sound den förtjänar</p>
<p>Välkommen till Wiss Music Productions<br />
</h1>
<p></a>
</div>

I assume that you want something like this:

<div id="slogan">
<a href="#what-we-do" class="js-coll-local-link">
<h1>
<p>Det är dags att ge din musik det sound den förtjänar</p>
<p>Välkommen till Wiss Music Productions</p>
</h1>
</a>
</div>
