Yes, I am fully aware that NN4.7 totally mangles the page, which is exactly
why I said that it should be viewed in the newer browsers. I also mentioned
that the reason I didn't have an alternative page is because I don't have
the server space to provide one, and ultimately, this page would be
meaningless for anyone using NN4.7 because of the CSS I'm using. NN4.7 just
doesn't support it. Remember, it IS a tutorial page that uses CSS. If people
are willing to learn the "latest" web design techniques, then I would think
(hopefully) that they would also be willing to update their browser too. The
only alternative I had was to use a browser sniffer and allow the visitor
the ability to download the latest browser. I gave a you direct link to this
page, not the browser redirect link. Please don't misunderstand, I don't
want to "exclude" anyone from my page, but because of the nature of the page
I felt that most people should be willing to upgrade. The only reason I even
suggested this technique is because someone had asked about how to use this
"button technique". NN4 WILL NOT work for this regardless.
