Brooke,

Is it not usual to include a DOCTYPE statement? Is it possible that the absence of such a statement is the cause of the problem?

Oh dear. Can I take it that the fix I did for Mozilla Firefox hasn't worked in your version of Netscape, Alan?

It is now OK in IE, in Firefox and in Netscape whether I use IE or Firefox as the Netscape rendering engine.

Alan,

The DOCTYPE usually just states what type of HTML is being used on the page... that can solve some problems, but it's different from the info that the browser reports...

e.g., my browser tags itself as "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0", which is different from anything you might see in a DOCTYPE attribute.

But it seems to be working now, from what I gather?
