Thank You Stephanie, I appreciate your input.. I am still learning what is
"legal" and what isn't "legal"

it is very frustrating to try and keep everything compatible for ALL
browsers.. do any of you have AOL ??
LOL   curious if it even works there...

As for the font, I am in agreement with you.. I thought it would be ok.. but
the more i look  at it - it sucks.. so I will change it to something no so
scriptive..
Thanks

    Wrong... Object is a perfectly legal HTML 4.0 element.  From the W3C
HTML 4.0 spec:

    <!ELEMENT OBJECT - - (PARAM | %flow;)* -- generic embedded object -->
    <!ATTLIST OBJECT ... etc, etc

    EMBED is a Netscape proprietary tag and is the one that shouldn't be
used and if you do, it is for no other reason than to please Netscape.
Object was indeed introduced by IE but is a much more flexible and powerful
way to "embed" objects into a page.  That is why that element made it in the
spec.

    Beautiful work Jeanette btw!  My only gripe is with the font you used
like someone else mentioned too.  It is quite hard to read.  I'm teaching
myself Flash as well on my spare time and am having a lot of fun.  Keep up
the good work! :-)
