As I read the source of the page you referenced with the tinyurl, there are 40 <a href...</a>s; 3 of those (17, 18 and 19) are hidden in a comment.

Number 24, counting those in the comment, <a href="http://gs.statcounter.com/press/bing-gains-another-1-perc-of-search-market">Bing Gains Another 1% of Search Market</a> doesn't seem to have anything that would cause the effect; neither does number 24, ignoring those in the comment.

In fact, IMO, the most remarkable thing about that page is that there are no obvious html, css or js errors (though I haven't looked at the linked css, nor at the linked js).

  1. its html is entirely valid to PerlTidy and the w3c validator;
      and
  2. it's marked for utf-8.

You might assist wiser monks to help by providing the partial data where the script stops, pinpointing the character you identify as the one at which the issue arises.
