Yeah, netscape sometimes messus up such thing, though if you would have
thought slightly further...


<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=3 width=100% height="50">
<tr>
 <td width=26 align=left nowrap>
  <img src="images/bar1a.gif" width="26" height="50"></td>
 <td nowrap>
  <table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 width=100% height="50"
background="images/bar1b.gif">
   <tr>
    <td align=center nowrap>
     <img src="images/reviews.gif"></td>
   </tr>
  </table></td>
 <td width=32 align=right nowrap>
  <img src="images/bar1c.gif" width="32" height="50"></td>
</tr>
</table>


Check this. Copy and paste.

Onderwerp: Netscape... Grrrrrr


My site is at a very basic stage and I'm just getting around to checking
sections of it on Netscape before proceeding much further. Unfortunately,
Netscape refuses to render something in the same was as IE and it's, err, a
bit
annoying (images of me putting a boot through my monitor is springing to
mind).

At the top of each screen I have a title bar which is basically a table. The
entire table is defined as having a width of 100%. This ensures that the
heading
fits the screen, however you have it sized. The table is then divided into 3
- a
left hand "corner", the heading and a right hand "corner". Each of the
corners
are a fixed width, which default should mean the the middle section should
be
sized according to whatever of the width is remaining. This works fine in IE
but
under Netscape the FIXED width "corners" are suddently far too big.

Here's the code...

<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=3 width=100%><tr cellpadding=0
cellspacing=0 border=0 width=100% height=50>
<td cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 width=26><img
src="images/bar1a.gif"
width="26" height="50"></td>
<td background="images/bar1b.gif" cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0><img
src=
"images/reviews.gif"></td>
<td cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 width=32><img
src="images/bar1c.gif"
width="32" height="50"></td>
</tr></table>

I will admit to have gone a bit mad with some of the elements (cellpadding,
etc)
simply to keep Netscape happy.

To get an idea of what this should look like, try

Any advice you could give on this would be much appreciated.
