Hi all,

I'm working with layers for the first time and have a great page when it's 
viewed in Explorer.  When you look at it in Netscape...well....let's just 
say "horrid" doesn't EVEN begin to describe it.

So, I decided to change the coding from "div" to "layer" and create a 
Netscape-only version of the site thinking to detect the type of browser 
and redirect to the correct version of the site.  Well, this worked 
great.  Until you try and resize the page that is.  Netscape picks up the 
layers and throws them wherever it wants - no apparent logic that I can 
find.  I have set the positions to "absolute".   I tried setting the 
positions to "relative" and it really went amuck.

Anyone have any ideas, suggestions or experience with this type of 
thing?  Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much in advance,

Peggi
