The problem seems to be that your floats are inside a relatively positioned
box .homepara2 having not zero left, top.   IE5/Mac seems to display the
floats as this box were in its original position.
I don't know if there is fix for this, a workaround is to avoid to use left,
top to position homepara2 and use margins instead (you already have margins
on .homepara2, so you will probably need to add an extra wrapper.)
BTW, I've create a simple test case for this IE5/Mac problem [1], maybe
someone knows a fix.

hth,
Bruno
