Hello,

While that does appear to be the problem, the <./script> tag is actually =
there.  For some reason Netscape doesn't seem to want to include it in the =
page. =20

Any ideas on why Netscape would decide to skip it?

Thanks,

Doug,

Quick look - You are missing a <./Script> tag.

Open the home page in Netscape and view the source file.  Scroll down =
until
you see all your code remains grayed out (especially the table tags).  =
Back
up until you see ...

<tr><td colspan=3D3><table border=3D0 cellspacing=3D0 cellpadding=3D0
width=3D100%><tr><td bgcolor=3D#CCCC99 align=3Dleft valign=3Dtop><img =
border=3D0
src=3D"/images/furniture/top-left-corner2.gif" height=3D10 width=3D10></TD>=
<td
bgcolor=3D#CCCC99 align=3Dleft valign=3Dtop><i><b><script language=3D"JavaS=

MG
border=3D0 src=3D"/images/furniture/bottom-right-corner2.gif" height=3D10
width=3D10></TD></TR></TABLE></TD></TR>
</TABLE>


There is no closing <./script> tag.


People can see/print the page in IE because IE renders practically =
anything.
Best you checks your pages in non-IE browsers because they are more strict
with code.

HTH,


Dennis
