Using MS Win 98 / MS IE 5.5

at:

www.narrowsburg.org

The menu in the upper left hand side after you hit 'enter' is rendered o.k
with IE 5.5

If anybody out there has a moment could you check and let me know how it's
rendered on different browsers and operating systems.

Thank you.

You've got some homework to do!!!
1. Your site should be viewable at different screen sizes.
2. Here's a screen capture of part of your first page (compressed 56kb)

It's writing all over itself in Konqueror. Specifically, the warning
to enlarge the screen ( !!! ) is writing over other parts of the screen.

Don't design for a specific screen size. Period. If you can grab the
bottom right corner of the window and drag it back - and - forth without
anything going wrong, you're on the right track.

Fails badly with Win2K/Firebird. Objects are on top of other objects.

Please don't underline any text that is not a link. Visitors will try
and click on it.

You do /not/ need a separate style sheet for each page. Use just one
for the entire site. Further, your markup is filled with inline
styles, such as:

<hr SIZE="5" WIDTH=265px COLOR=#800000/> or
<div id="top_a" style="position:absolute; width:90px; color:black;
letter-spacing:.2em;font-family:verdana;font-size:10px; top:10;
left:2%;z-index:5;">

Move these all to the one style sheet.

#Copy p{
font-family:"Verdana";
font-size:10px; ...

Don't specify font sizes in px, use 100% instead, and drop Verdana.
Google for why. Change the above to:

#Copy p{
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size:100%; ...

Lots of other work needs done. See http://validator.w3.org/ and
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator-uri.html for starters.

It nees some more space inbetween the different objects. When things run
into other things than bad things happen to those things.
