Re: newbie

I've replied to John off list, but wanted to pass on some advice to
others who might come across similar problems.

If a site is working in IE and not in Netscape or Mozilla, that's often
because there are errors in the markup.  Netscape and Mozilla are not
very error tolerant.

The best approach to markup is to validate both the HTML and the CSS
prior to publishing, then at least any browser incompatibility issues
are not the result of poor coding, but of the various browser
foibles--which have given me more than my fair share of grey hairs over
the years.

The W3C validators are free and useful tools.  You can find them at:
http://validator.w3.org/
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

And for those of you who are into favelets (or bookmarklets for the
Netscape and Mozilla users amongst us), both tools (and more) are
available in that format.  See: http://tantek.com/favelets/

Cheers,
Dey
