Updated, 2 questions for the Gurus

[mdd]

Sorry, I neglected to refer to the website in question.. www.njscref.org

I am using FrontPage 2002 and am having a few problems with a new website we
created

1. When I go to add text on a number of my pages, it puts a virtual box
around the text (the 8 dots that surround it) but for some pages, it puts a
much larger box than the text width and gives me a large empty margin. so
when the page loads (in IE but not Mozilla) it has scroll bars to take into
account the extra space. I can't drag the box to be smaller....it resizes
the text portion smaller too. I really want these boxes to snap into place
next to the text. Otherwise, i seem to get unwanted scroll bars in the
final display (on IE more than firefox) [THIS IS PARTICULARLY NOTICEABLE IN
THE 'ABOUT' PAGE]
2. On my navigation buttons (brought in with a theme), they work fine on
all pages when viewed in IE, but when viewed in firefox on one page only
[ALSO THE ABOUT PAGE!] the buttons don't work. I have done all kinds of
things to try to fix
this...pasted in navigation bars from other pages, redid the entire page
from scratch. But always this page the buttons don't work

Any tricks or fixes for these two things?

you can email me at info ((at) kramden (.d0t.) net

thanks in advance, mark

Sorry to say that there is also a problem on that page with the nav buttons
using IE.... at least there was for me and yes you are right... they all
work fine on other pages.

Best to you......

try changing the width of your div to 100% instead of 900. Or, arrange the pages in tables with a width set
to 100%.

the buttons work, they're just 'slow' it seems (you have to search for just the right spot on the area to make
it work). Probably the javascript - which i don't know much about.

forget what i said about the div... the page has a bottom scrollbar because your page content exceeds the
client area (the background picture is a static size)

I also noticed that the contact page's content goes behind the left nav buttons if your page is made smaller,
you can get rid of this by adding <blockquotes> like the other pages have.
