in IE, there is a background behind the buttons. In Netscape it will not show no matter WHAT I do! Ive tried everything, td background, tr background, table background

nothing. Check out the code and please tell me if there is something that I am missing!

You are calling images on top of background images.

Unfortunately there is not way to get this to work in Netscape.

I actually had to create multiple sets of pages for my site because of the very same problem.

I have JavaScript that will make it easy for you to redirect pages.

To see the code look at the page made for Netscape and the one made for IE (you must use the browser to view the pages or they will redirect to the appropriate pages).

Page made for IE:

Page made for Netscape:

What you will notice on the Netscape page is that I basically made snap-shots of the IE pages and blocked the images in place. One thing to keep in mind is that 85% of the users on the Internet (general population) use Internet Explorer. I used that information when I made the Netscape pages. They take longer to load but at least they work.

By the way, view the source of the pages to 'steal' the redirect code if you want to use it. If you have trouble just submit another post.

Hope this helps.

Did you sort it? have you tried stylesheets for the buttons naming the elements..

I don't get it? Explain how I can use stylesheets?

The site uses a lot of graphics, so I decided that I would avoid using the TD background and just make the backgroud up with the button images, rather than using transparent button images (which i did in IE and it looks sweeeet!! X-) ) Miles
