Don't bother, site doesn't work in Opera or Firefox, but pulling a href
out of the source returns a page comprised solely of banner ads and
buttons where the OP earns on referrals/pay-per-'click'. It's just a
form of spam.

hey! I am very new at this! I just wanted some advice. Yes its a site of
banners, but I have not made a dime from it, I used a program called
microsoft publishing. I know it sucks but I wanted to know what you thought
about the concept of it. I use explorer and I noticed you said it would not
work with firefox, so I downloaded firefox and your right! it does not work.
WHY? like I said im very new at this and did not want to hassle with html,
It was easy for me to create because all I had to do was cut and paste, so
if you can give some feed back maybe I can improve...

My advice is learn some HTML. You don't need to rush out and "learn it
all", just what you will be using on your site. :)

Then you will have better odds of a _web_ site working better when put
up on the Web.

Because you built the site using microsoft publisher. This produces code
that only works with IE.

If you do not wish to use HTML then find another wysiwyg that is *not* a
microsoft product. Browse through the archives for this group, you will find
many references to such things.

However, HTML is quite easy to learn and I suggest you do so. Start by
simply coding an <a> element for each of your bannars and then explore a bit
of CSS to arrange them nicely. You can report back here as you go for
assistance.

You may also wish to reconsider the frames. Frames produce so many problems.
Once again, browse through the archives, you will find many references to
frames and the fact that they are evil.

Please note that the only 2 posts from you in recent history are in this
thread. That makes you NOT a regular, and you'll note rf is a regular.
Hate to pull rank in this way, but man, you got some huge balls to tell
the regs in a newsgroup how to post.

Part of successful web design - to which this forum is devoted - involves
working with all the possible user agents and not XXXXing any of them up.
Yours fails, sadly.
