Karen,

Your layers are not Mac browser friendly.  When you come into the site the
navigation is down the left side.  However, if you expand the browser
window it all ends up at the bottom below the text and stays there if you
go to other pages.

There is this code showing up at the bottom of all the extra white space:

 if (test==0) { var dt=0, sv=10,
ss="na",sc="na",ln="",pl="",rf="",bn="",ja="",bv=0,x1="",x2="",x3="",arg="";

Wh
en I went to copy the line of text above and then hit paste, this is what
showed up:


 if (test==0) { var dt=0, sv=10,
ss="na",sc="na",ln="",pl="",rf="",bn="",ja="",bv=0,x1="",x2="",x3="",arg="";
 rf
=escape(document.referrer)+"";if((rf=="undefined")||(rf=="")){rf="bookmark";}
 b
v=Math.round(parseFloat(navigator.appVersion)*100);bn=navigator.appName;

if(bn!="Netscape"){dt=(new
Date()).getHours();};if(bn.substring(0,9)=="Microsoft"){bn="MSIE";}

if((bn=="MSIE")&&(parseInt(bv)==2)){bv=302;};ja="na";

You should remove all the extra <P> tags if you are not using them. On some
pages there is no navigation at all and the background color is grey.  If
you didn't intend to have that color you might want to put a BGCOLOR in.

It is a good start for a first time.  I agree on the italic comment too.
They tend to be hard to read.

Carrie.
