Hi,

I am taking an HTML class at our local community college.  For my final exam 
I have to create a webpage that will fit on a floppy and turn it in.  Certain 
things are required (CSS, java, sound, frames, etc.)  I decided to display 
part of my antique postcard collection.  I have this one picture of the old 
Eads bridge across the Mississippi River which I scanned and used it with a 
free lake.class applet that I downloaded from a site.  The image worked fine 
with the webpage when I had everything on my zip drive using Explorer.  When 
I moved it to the floppy, the image would not show.  I signed up for a 
webpage on Xoom to see how it would work on the net.  It does not work in 
Explorer.  I tried it in Netscape and that does work only the webpage looks a 
lot better in Explorer.  I get a message - Load class lake missing.  I ftp'd 
the lake.class up using binary several times along with the image thinking 
that could be the problem.  I am confused as to why this works on Explorer on 
a zip disk and not on the floppy or internet.

I also have a sound question.  When the webpage opens the sound file 
(steamboat horn) I have embedded sounds real choppy.  Is there a way to delay 
the sound until everything else has loaded?

Thanks again,

Paulette
