this page:

doesn't work properly in Netscape, and I've tried it in both v4.7 and 7.1.
The e-mail links 'info at writers4management dot com' and 'here'- near the
bottom of the page are dead, however they work fine in IE, and I've tested
it in IE v5.00 to v6/SP1.
I tried using CSE HTML Validator v6.01 and it found a few errors which I
corrected but that still didn't solve the problem.
Can anyone see what the error is? Thanks for any help.

As near as I can tell, you're using some proprietary IE extensions that
somehow break the linking.

The majority of your content consists entirely of images of text with no
alternatives.  Among other things, that means that no search engine will be
able to index it.

You have a table in there with a width set to 960 pixels, guaranteeing the
need for horizontal scrolling for most readers.

Quoth the raven named net:

And what little will get indexed isn't even spelt correctly:
writerss4management?

The mail link at the bottom doesn't work in IE 6 here, and the second set of
orange bullets are misaligned. Also in IE 6, the two lines at the bottom are
nearly overlapping each other.

Why does the logo show the "4" key with the percentage sign, when on most
keyboards the percentage sign is on the "5" key?

One of the 'other things' being near-meaningless links for
screen-readers/voice browsers.

thanks for all the replies here.
I've decided the best way to go with this is to scrap all the code and
rebuild the pages using friendlier retro code
