FP 2002 with Windows 98.
After I have uploaded pages they look fine when I review
them online, using IE6. However, other people, using IE
get the following problem. Everything is fine when the
window is not maximised, but when it's maximised, some of
the content goes missing - photos & text.
Can anyone suggest a solution?

I am not see any content that disappears, however the content does adjust to fit the screen. The
solution is to use fix pixel width tables instead of % width tables.

Correction: I do see where part of the content is off the screen on the left.

Make sure your cell widths do not exceed 100% of the table width.

In addition to making sure your table %'s add up to 100%, don't use absolute positioning like in:

<div style="border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1; padding-left: 4; padding-right: 4; padding-top: 1; padding-bottom:
1">

Thanks, I have just checked the pages on my PC at work and
I can confirm that actual content goes missing on some
pages. I.E. it cannot be found by scrolling around the
page. The table width is set to 100%, so I will try
setting it to 800 pixels - does this sound like the best
width to choose?

Nigel,

Go narrower than 800 if you're gonna go with fixed design...like 750 would be better.

You can also try repositioning the Solitary Bees graphic - like maybe add a top row to your table just for the graphic - I think this will help. Right now that graphic doesn't appear to be in the table and is forcing the table to the right. (I think)
