Author Check site with a Macintosh Please
Carol

Hello,

I have a client who is telling me when his site is opened on a Mac it
goes 'caflooey'.

He describes it as:
Things hopping around and flashing at him.

I have checked it in Opera and Thunderbird and it looks ok to me but I
am on a PC.

The site is pretty straight forward - would someone with a Mac please
take a look at the homepage for me and let me know if it comes up ok?

Thanks very much,
Carol

The page is a mess. That's why the Mac is barfing it up.

Try making your page validate to some standard like HTML 4.01 Strict or
Transitional, and you should have better luck.

Netscape 4.7 : Mac OSX 1.2.6(classic 9.2) - Looks okay but fonts differ*

*Netscape had javascript turned off.
