Actually, we tried many a times to get it to work in Netscape. It works very well in Version 6 of Netscape (currently in Beta testing phase, availible for d/l though), but everything else it doesn't look right. Though, it isn't our fault. We held to the HTML standards very well, and Netscape has had 2 years to support them. You can either use IE4.0+ to view it, or d/l Netscape 6 for now. Hopefully it will work better in the future though.------------------ ZZTRaider | zztraider@yahoo.com | AIM: ZZTRaider | ICQ: 15030114 * ZZTRaider wonders how Mew survived Labor with Mewtwo I use Mewtwo, and I don't care if you think he's cheap or not. He'll always be on my team (except in situations where Mewtwo is banned for some stupid reason), including on G/S, not for stats, but because I like him as a pokemon. So there!

Fanha: *gives Netscrape the finger*That's 1 in 4 of Azure Heights visitors, by the way. Bitching about who's fault it is doesn't solve the problem. *gives IE makers a big hug for making things easy on page designers by following standards to the letter* And if they don't like the standards, they invent their own and expect everyone else to follow suit because Microsoft said so. Yeah, let's all give Mr. Gates a big juicy kiss. ------------------ "Things fall apart. It's scientific." -David Byrne

It's called CSS or Cascading Style Sheets. Basically what it does is allow you to use repeat information easily, as you can store certain things (sizes, colors, fonts, etc.) in a seperate file, and use a line to include it into the html page. This way, you only change one file, and it can reflect on hundreds. Unfortuneatly, even though there has been a CSS standard (it's officially part of HTML, the FONT tag has been retired) for 2 1/2 years. Shouldn't Netscape have better support by now?------------------ ZZTRaider | zztraider@yahoo.com | AIM: ZZTRaider | ICQ: 15030114 * ZZTRaider wonders how Mew survived Labor with Mewtwo I use Mewtwo, and I don't care if you think he's cheap or not.

ZZTRaider: It's called CSS or Cascading Style Sheets.There's more than one way to skin a cat. I don't have to repeat my info, and I don't use CCSs. But you can also get CCSs to work with Netscape, if you want to use them. Unfortuneatly, even though there has been a CSS standard (it's officially part of HTML, the FONT tag has been retired) for 2 1/2 years. Shouldn't Netscape have better support by now? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on your geek politics and who you think is at fault. But either way, whining about standards doesn't solve the problem. Telling someone they need to download a 15M program to see a text file is just unacceptable. But these guys have shown a total lack of integrity and respect so far, so I wouldn't expect to see competence or consideration for their potential users any time soon... ------------------ "Things fall apart.
