website does not appear the same on other computers

[Guest]

The website I'm working on does not appear the same on other computers, not
all of them but a few. It's published, although not finished, and when I
pull it up on my computer it looks perfect. The font, the layers,
everything. When I check it on other computers the font is different,
unaligned and it's a mess. The name, Lamericas.com, should be in Amazone Bt,
but it turns to print.

Also I need help with the search form. I placed a search bar on my site but
it does not work. Could you instruct me on how to make it useful.

I am using FrontPage 2003
Internet explorer
Windows XP
I've checked my site on computers with
AOL= A few were fine and a few were not
Netscape= I've only checked one computer with Netscape and it was a mess
Internet explorer = Same al AOL
Thank You,
S.A.

Rather than a reguritation of what is covered quite
frequently on this newsgroup on this topic, I would
suggest you may want to spend some time going through the
posts. This is probably the most frequently asked
question on this newsgroup.

Don't use non-std fonts
- if a user/pc doesn't have it, it won't show
Don't use word/shape art
Don't use styles that are not globally supported
Remove all spaces from file names

Your "search form" won't work w/o some type of server side coding (ASP or PHP)
All you can use is the std FP Search page template
The Dropdown menu part will work if you remove the textbox (and set the targets to be "_self")
