Hyperlinks created on Frontpage do not work on Apple PC's

[Guest]

I have created a Web Site using Frontpage 2002. I did not use any templates.
I have recieved complaints that Apple PC users can not use any of the
Hyperlinks. What can I do to correct this?

Sounds like you are using Java Hover buttons...if so...don't, as Mac's are not the only ones who wont see them...any new machine that doesn't have JVM installed will just see a gray box.

How did you create the hyperlinks, or better yet, provide the URL to the site.

I used "Insert Hyperlink". They work well on everyone elses PC's. THe problem
seem sto be just on Mac's. And I know some use Internet Explorer and at least
one uses FireFox. The URL is www.stvs.org

You use the Drawing/Text Tools which use VML graphic which is supported only in IE browsers running
under Windows.

Create individual images with the text as part of the image, then select the image and assign the
hyperlink. Consider designing the site using tables to structure your page layout, so that when the
browser window is resized, the text and image are not overlapped.

Also remove all spaces (%20) from your file and folder names.
