Site design problems

Recently I began to have problems with items not appearing where I placed
them on my website when I preview it and when I go to published site via my
browser. The url is www.KnitterCritter.com. The first page appears ok, but
if you click on "sweaters" to the left, the page you go to is in complete
disarray. I am using Netscape 7.2...is that my problem or is the program
going nuts? I'm incredibly frustrated at this point--please help!

It's a Netscape thing. Publisher, being a Microsoft product, does not do
well on browsers other than Internet Explorer, which is a Microsoft product.

By the way, your links on the home page are unusual. As long as I don't
click on the word inside the yellow boxes, it sends me to the correct page.
If I put my cursor on the word, no link. You did something kinda' goofy
there. I have ideas on what it might have been but you may want to take a
look at that.

Publisher 2000 works OK with Nutscrape, but not Publisher 2003. This is one of
the more bizarre and brazen problems with Publisher 2003. It is arguable that
the incompatibility is a violation of one or more Consent Decrees M$ has entered
into. Given that Publisher 2000 is reasonably compatible with most browsers,
they obviously had to expend considerable effort to screw up Publisher 2003
(yes, I know it is a consequence of implementing new technology).

Actually JoAnn it is typical that the button has the hotspot but not the
text. And if they do a manual link on the text it can screw up the menu
later having both the text and the button as a hotspot.

Ah - I see. I would have created the graph with the text and make the entire
graphic the hotspot.
