| Knowing the source code or URL would help. The browser information would
also help.
If you used FP Draw or any other Office product this could probably be the
problem

| Hi Billy,
There's lots of things you can do when creating a web page/site....that are
not compatible across all browsers or operating systems. The situation
though is we would only be guessing at what the problems might be without
seeing for ourselves. I know you mentioned that it is a members site..but is
it possible for you to post a link?
Also ask the two people that cannot see it.... what type of computer and
also what type of browser they are viewing in.

| Hi Billy,
The first thing that stands out on the link you provided is that you are
using a Marquee scrolling across the top. The Marquee is actually a Java
Applet. There are a lot of people with computers out there that do not have
Java Installed/Enabled. If they don't have it they will never see it..and it
may cause additional problems as well for them. I would star by removing any
Marquees you have...and then ask your members if they can then see the
pages.

| Develop your website, don't design it with Frontpage.
I used those textboxes once in Frontpage and took a look at the source code.
I knew enough back then never to use them.
You might need to consider an imaging program or something else - maybe
tables / cells or divides?
I simple text box created this much code:
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml"
xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<link rel="File-List" href="new_page_1_files/filelist.xml">
<title>New Page 1</title>
<!--[if !mso]>
<style>
v\:* { behavior: url(#default#VML) }
o\:* { behavior: url(#default#VML) }
..shape { behavior: url(#default#VML) }
</style>
<![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]>
<xml><o:shapedefaults v:ext="edit" spidmax="1027"/>
</xml><![endif]-->
</head>
<body>
<p><!--[if gte vml 1]><v:rect id="_x0000_s1025"
style='position:absolute;left:21.75pt;top:13.5pt;width:141pt;height:57.75pt;
z-index:1'/><![endif]--><![if !vml]><span style='mso-ignore:vglayout;
position:absolute;z-index:1;left:28px;top:17px;width:190px;height:79px'><img
width=190 height=79 src="new_page_11_files/image001.gif"
v:shapes="_x0000_s1025"></span><![endif]></p>
When using a table it is something like:
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 140px; height: 60px">
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>

| Hi Billy,
Take a look at what Corey and the two Toms mentioned about text boxes..not a
good way to go..use tables and table cells for entering and organizing areas
of text. You could also use divs..but starting out with tables might be a
little easier.
Also do consider removing the marquees wherever you have those as well..very
problematic.
