It seems to be impossible to get interactive buttons display screen tips in
IE 6.
It displays the already displayed text in the title field of the code.
Firefox does it right.
IE 6 is my primary goal.
Just one more FP feature that does not work.
I'd like to use regular hyperlinks as a substitute.
I can adjust their colors in Page Properties.
Is there any way to turn off the automatic underlining?

As I said, they show in my IE 6, both the ib's and the text links.
( although not all text links have them )

I don't really think it's an FP issue.

I viewed the source for your page and:
all of the html for the Netfirms adverstisement is contained
between the opening <html> tag and the opening <head> tag
It should be after the opening body tags.

This "could" be part of the issue.

You can do this with inline styles, or by using a CSS stylesheet
A stylesheet is the preferred method.

thanks steve but its not the answer.
after delving into the code
I find that when creates the interactive buttons it places the Screen tip in
the Title field which Mozilla uses on mouseover (as well as the color change
specified) IE6 uses the alt field to display the screeen tip. There is also
a field called fp-title which duplicates the content of the alt field but
when I empty it, it has no apparent effect

In the links in the bottom shared border (And throughout the site) both
browsers use the title field for the mouseover screen tip.
The netfirms banner placement is a problem I have to deal with.
but causes no APPARENT problem.
