Hi, I've read numerous posts here about trouble viewing in browsers other
than IE. I'm having the same issue.

www.acapitalsolution.com

Is there any way around re-doing the entire site using table instead of text
boxes (GRRRR)?

I'm not afraid of tinkering with the code, but I found some suggestions on
another discussion board that I tried but all that did was make it bad in IE
also! So, I'm back to the drawing board, but really don't want to have to do
the whole thing over.

I realize that the vast majority of users are on IE, but being a recent iMac
(can I say that here?) user, it's driving me nuts. My interactive hyperlink
buttons that should appear across the bottom of each page above the copyright
info are all over (behind the text boxes) and the 'contact me' hyperlinks I
have throughout that should take you to the "contact" page do not work. I've
looked at it on Safari, Netscape, and Firefox all with pretty much the same
results.

I'm using FrontPage 2003 and my host (iPower) supports FrontPage extensions
if that makes a difference.

Thanks for any help you can give me!

Joy

Text boxes, WordArt and any other object created with the drawing
toolbar are IE only, other browsers will render a low quality .gif
representation. Any Hyperlinks in a text box will only work in IE.
The only cure is to start over with tables or <divs>, but avoid
absolutely positioned layers unless you know how to use them
effectively.
