If memory serves me ...

Eight and three rule:
Maximum 8 characters (lower case) name in front
of file extensions (extensions max 3 ).
Goes back to DOS and UNIX system.
I believe NT system can have longer file name and extensions (*.html)

8 character.3 extension characters

newpage1.htm  (Unix System)

NOT

newpage123.html     (NT)

Ok, wow. IE DOES show it right. Now I'm really confused.
Ok, I will try switching the pages to html instead of htm (whats the
difference, anyway?) and see if that works.
I am using Netscape� Communicator 4.51 as my browser and am getting some
links that show up right and some not.
Still searching my code...

Confused about the comment about the "row of side by side links at the
bottom of the page". Wondering what page you're talking about.

>>w did you load these to the server?  What format?  When I save the
>>window to disk it is not recognizing it as an htm file?

Wow, thats strange. I made the files into .htm and used the Hot Metal Pro
publish button to upload it.
