Front Page 2003 and Netscape Viewing problems using layers.....

Hello All:

I am using the controls in Front Page 2003 for the first time to create
layers. Like most posts viewing in Netscape creates problems. Could someone
look at the template page I am working on in IE 6 and Netscape and see where
the problem lies.

I have done some hard coding for drop-downs like this in netscape but would
like to avoid it.

Thanks

If you are going to use layers, you must never put them directly into table
cells.

<td align="left" valign="top">
<div style="position: absolute; width: 122px; height: 65px;
z-index: 1; left: 160px; top: 176px; visibility: hidden; background-image:
url('images/blue.jpg')" id="B1">

Your first step to rehabilitation would be to remove all your layers from
the table cells and paste them back into the code either directly above
</body> or directly beneath <body>.

By the way, this may help you a little -

Hi Murray:

I did what you said but it did not fix the problem. However, I am going to
go look at the suggestion you sent.


Thanks for the post

Hi Murray:

I got it...
Before page: http://www.elapinc.com/template3.html

After Page: http://www.elapinc.com/template5.html

Explain What I did:

To take care of all the formatting issues on the side out layers I removed
the height command.

To take care of the side out box (Prgram Legal Documents) that would not
come out I found in my link syntax I had the ID set as b5 instead of
B5...Case Issue

Finally the home button that was messed up I found that FP put a align
center command in there. Removed it.


thanks for your help. The link to your site made me think about it and gave
me some great pointers.

Thanks again Murray:

someone to kick start my brain...thanks again
