Why does Frontpage look different on other computers

Guest

I have a webpage made with frontpage. I have viewed it on several other
computers and it looks different on every single one. The only computer it
looks correct is the one I actually did the editing from. On some of the
monitirs the text is overlapped and things just are not lined up the way I
edited it. All the computers are set on the same settings. Also I used IE
during editing but when I look at the page using Mozilla, nothing looks right.

Thank You

Please give a link to the faulty page.

As a guess here are some common errors:
you have used absolute positioning or text boxes to lay out parts of the
page. The other parts will move around as browser portal size is
changed, and as text size is changed.

Text size is set differently on some PCs.

You built the site using CSS positioning. CSS can be somewhat
unreliable in terms of consistency across browsers. The only solution
I know of is to study CSS and learn what works consistently, then
avoid those pieces that don't. The other tried and true alternative is
to use HTML tables for positioning, a technique the majority of
mainstream sites still employ for basic positioning.

If you like you can shut off CSS Positioning in the FP Options so that
it's features do not accidentally creep into your production.

If you're thinking "hey, I just want to build web sites in Front Page
not learn about web design" then, sorry, someone sold you a pig in a
poke if you think you can build proper sites without proper training -
self or other.
