Question

I thought I had better start a new post since I said in the other one that I had made the corrections...
However I just installed netscape 4.7 and I can not load this webpage with it, however it works in IE5
http://www.campbellcounty.com/cars4sale/
This was brought to my attension when my friend couldn't load it on his mac with netscape...I have been told it does not load with Linux and netscape too....Any ideas on how to make it work with netscape....

Just an idea ... how about trying it without the javascript, even if it means loosing the counter. The text can be temporarily taken out by putting "<!-- " in front of it and ending with " -->".

It *sort of* loads in Netscape 4.73. There is no background and all the images are broken. Looking over your code, i think i see why. The background is "jpg/" which points absolutely nowhere. The pic tags are jpgs\imagex.jpg which is illegal. Need forward slash. jpgs/imagex.jpg

Fix these and the page will prolly be perfect in any browser.

Thumbs up

Good eye GLC, it looks like the background tag is causing a problem. It's calling for a white background (BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF) but there is also a (BACKGROUND="jpg/") within the tag ... what could that be?

The fact that he has a Mac has nothing to do with the problem. His browser will now open the page properly now that the code is correct.

Hi guys,
Running Netscape 4.72 the page loads fine. If an OS has anything to do with it then I use 95b. I find that there's just too much $hit involved with 98/fe/se to waste my time on it.

Having said that, there are some sites (not many) that don't support Netscape, as far as loading images are concerned.

Just my opinion but I'd take a look at the OS. 98 seems to be geared for IE4/5 and NOT Netscape.........conflicting interests and all that .


Yours

Declan (aka fredwest)

PS: Fabulous car. Buy it byte .

Sorry about that archie, I didn't list it...
The main main problem what that I have a used a form from a previous page website I had used for a back bone. I left the background image tag in with out a image to load....So netscape was hanging on the background that was not there. Now it looks good, if you want to see the code goto www.campbellcounty.com/cars4sale and view the source. Byte

Sarge - PCMech takes a while but it eventually loads here in Netscape. It's definitely more IE friendly though.

Actually I changed not only the background tag, but I also fixed all on the .jpg tags which had the wrong slash type. Also fixed 2 URL addresses.
BTW Byte, you have the same problems in the computer bash site. Tags for you .jpg files are incorrect.
