I too had the same problem that Wirt discusses.

I saw one home page (I don't remember which one) that had two jumps
from it, one for the MAC and one for the PC.  I didn't know why, but
now that I have this new found information, I would guess that they
built two sets of pages, again one for the MAC and one for the PC.
Until a standard is defined, this could be a possible solution (?).
