Hello
My pages look fine in IE but they totally mess up in Netscape 4.7
Is there something I'm doing wrong?

THanks

First off welcome to webmaster-talk desidame, great to have you here.

second: ok this goes in the coding/scripts forum. Not the site review forum.

and to awnser your question:
there may be many things involved on why it isnt working on Netscape 4.7, among them might be JavaScript. Does your website use JS. If it does then tahts the problem. If you arent using JS then give us a link so we can take a look at your coding and help you out.

-Josh

when html started off it had loads of browser specific tags - for exmaple marquee works on ie but not netscape, the dreaded blink which use to poison the web only worked on netscape

netscape interprets certain aspects of html differently - especially table widths and aligns

you should try and get into the habit to check your site on at least 3 different browsers - internet explorer, netscape and opera

netscape actually uses a browser called mozilla and aol have started using this as their default browser. Many webmasters say that for say 10% of the web who doesnt use ie its a waste of time programming for all browsers but to me - losing out on 10% of potential visitors is just plain stupid

everyone makes out that designing for all browsers is a pain but it really isnt - all you have to do is avoid putting in ie or netscape only tages and check the look of your site on every browser now and then

good luck
