<<I've just discovered to my horror that none of my javascript mouseovers on
any of my sites work in AOL 4.0.  Can someone with AOL please take a look
for me???  Look at http://www.enokiworld.com/frontpage.htm ; in the center
should be a figure of a woman that changes with a mouseover.  Is this the
most recent version of AOL?  Can someone check my javascript and tell me if
the problem is AOL or my script?  I am very distraught over this (I was with
a potential client when I found this out...fortunately he still decided to
buy!!!)!  I had no idea this was a problem --sigh-- I guess I'm gonna have
to get AOL afterall so I can check my sites....
Thank you!

Now let's not get carried away! Buying into AOL is a very serious and
drastic step, and not one to take lightly.  I tried twice to install it on
my machine, under sever protest, and crashed it both times.  Now I use Bobby
to check.

Essentially, try grouping AOL with IE 3.x...it helps cut allot of the
problems out.  Then try to stay away from CSS, or be very careful with it,
becasue that just recently caused my a major AOL headache.  Finally, realize
that they are pretty much demanding an extra step in design to meet their
ridiculous standards, and figure that into your overall price structure.
