John, get this through your head: You need to validate your html. At least half a dozen people, including me, have pointed you to: http://validator.w3.org/ That site tells you exactly what the problems are. Open the page(s) in a text editor, make the changes as indicated, then try again. NO ONE can tell you what the problems are just by looking at screen shots. We'd need to see the code, and then what any of us would do to fix that code would be to use the above validation service or something like it. If you want someone to put in all the time and effort to fix your pages, it's likely you'll have to pay for such services. If you want to do it yourself, well, the only way to do it is by actually doing it. You want someone to tell you some magical way to fix crappy code without any real effort or understanding, and it doesn't work that way. And for pete's sake, man, don't keep starting new threads! -- Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi> Make money while saving money <http://www.bign.com/mrosenberg>

Okay, in all fairness, looking at the validator.w3.org results on your home page, the large majority of your errors are related to having tags with "X-Claris" in them. Claris HomePage, which was last update over 12 years ago, is not only woefully out of date with the current state of HTML, it was also doing some hinky stuff with tags like these. Bottom line - you really need to recreate your pages from scratch if you ever want them to display as you want them to and consistently across different browsers and platforms. That you have said you don't want to do the above does not change the necessity to do so. -- Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi> Make money while saving money <http://www.bign.com/mrosenberg>

I actually like doing HTML documentation in Amaya pretty much: http://www.w3.org/Amaya/ However it doesn't support some advanced CSS and probably not suitable as WYSIWYG editor for newbies. It is however very nice GUI for writing HTML, and not only. -- Stanimir

I better create a backup. You don't already have one? Several? Oh my. I sometimes make a full back of a web site every few minutes if I'm working heavily and fast on it.
