The reason it doesn't work is that you are using Microsloth front page to build it; it's a notoriously *bad* product. Microsoft has no interest whatsoever in maintaining coherence with non-Microsoft products. You aren't the first web page builder to be screwed by it! If you don't already have it, download Netscape Gold & build it using that to start; then there's other fancier products on the market if you need to expand. Also, don't use Java, unless you really need it. But I scanned the text and a couple of links - I hope you succeed! Good luck; Chris

I didn't want to get into an HTML editor debate but I have to comment. I agree that there doesn't seem to any need for the java navigation. I've been told that MS Front page 2000 is more cross-browser compatible than previous versions. -- Chas Frady, Your Albuquerque Realtor ************************************************ Eat more green chile! ************************************************ Just like it sounds: info at nmagent dot com Chris wrote in message <38221B48.926DC827@ns.sympatico.ca>... >The reason it doesn't work is that you are using Microsloth front page >to build it; it's a notoriously *bad* product.

Hi Chris, What program would you recommend for web pages. I've used Claris Homepage for around $100. US Wondering if it is worth buying it.

Hi Marilyn; I really don't know - other than just about everyone I know who uses Front Page has trouble with other browsers - and given Microsoft's history of a rather peculiar approach to competition (to say the least), I'm not surprised. I'm happy with just Netscape Gold - it can't do much besides straight forward stuff - but then again, I get irritated at these sites that overdo it with frames, and floating this & that, & now music...don't need that for my chocolate box! Anyway, if you find a site you like, look at the text form (in Netscape you can use the View/Page Source menu item) & you can see what software was used to generate it. Alternatively, learning the html commands is not that hard.. FWIW, there is a Canadian product put out by a company called Brooklyn North - I hear it's pretty good.

some things can see java some things can't. simple as that, there is netscape stuff that I can not see on my normal browser sometimes, so there is good and bad in everything. nice work by the way. - uniqueart wildbill06@home.com wrote in message ... >I would really like to get some feedback on my Art & web page!

Since there seems to be some interest - here's the URL for Brooklyn North's "HTML Assistant" - you can download a copy & run it for 30 days, on trial.

Netscape for web sites? I have Netscape Gold, came with Corel Suite 8 but I've never used it. Just put it in Edit Page Mode?

Hi Marilyn; Yes; I just start with a new blank page, and type away. It can do tables, help you link in pages, provides headers & targets, etc; you can also drag and drop pictures in, and it comes with a spell checker. Sort of like a cheap word processor! As far as I know it can't do frames. Another easy way to get started is to copy a page from a site you like to your own machine, then open it up in a text editor (like dos edit or emacs) and rewrite it to suit your fancy. BTW., I've set the followup-to field to rec.arts.fine only, so as not to clutter other groups...

I'd recommend two excellent, powerful, full featured web authoring suites... Macromedia Dreamweaver 2.0 and Softquad's HoTMetaL Pro 6.0. Both will create clean HTML which will display equally well on IE or Netscape. Both will allow you to write your own code directly in a text editor environment or you can use either one as a WYSIWYG application. Neither will add "proprietary" markup to your code. Both have full featured trial versions available for download from their respective sites. Netscape Gold was nice in 1996 but it's approaching Y2K.... -- Chas Frady, Your Albuquerque Realtor ************************************************ Eat more green chile! ************************************************ Just like it sounds: info at nmagent dot com Marilyn Welch wrote in message ... >Hi Chris, > >What program would you recommend for web pages.
