Hi hopefully someone here can maybe answer a question i
have with front page....i have designed a site...checked
it in "preview"..."previewed in browser" both netscape and
explorer 6.0 and it looks exactly like it was designed in
front page....but my friends say that when they look at it
on their machines all the graphics look right, web
components work right, but the text paragraphs over lap
each other....if i correct it so it looks right on their
machine it's all overlaped in mine then....what can be
causing this....i have preview in as many browers as
suggested, tried reseting my resolution ie: 640x 480 , 800
x600...just to see if maybe they were viewing in a lower
resolution than i was creating the site in....i'm out of
ideas....can anyone help
thanks
Mitch

As I'm sure most others guessed, without looking at the site, You've
used absolute positioning.

Avoid absolute positioning, as it will usually result in the problems
you've encountered. Format the text and images in tables, instead.

i'm not sure what you meant with format text and graphics
in a table...but i knopw i did crate it the way you
said...so i guess i have to figure out what the table
thing is...
thanks
