page looking different

Everything to do with using your own website to advertise your rental property. Design, usability, hosting, getting listed on the search engines, optimising your site, pay-per-click, etc, etc.

Looks good on Firefox 1.1, Netscape 7.2 and 8, Avant Browser 10.0, Internet Explorer 6.0 but there is a problem in Opera 7.54 (on the main page). All tested on Win 2K.

And it looks fine to me too. It takes lots of work to have a website look fine in all browsers and so it might not be worth the effort to get a fix for this one. Still, most people are using IE so the vast majority of your visitors will see it OK.

meishka,

When developing Websites it's always a good idea to have as many browsers on your system as possible. That way you can test how each browser renders your site before you publish it. You can download Opera 7.54 from www.opera.com, it's free.

Your coding for the display of the four pictures and captions is a little jumbled. Perhaps a bit of editing to clean it up is all that is required. I am sure Brooke would know but I think she is on vacation.

Fraise,

It did for me too. Please try http://www.opera.com/. That link does work.

The fiddling worked:

Oh, and it didn't mess up the other browsers either, which is what usually happens to me...
