Well I have got the basic framework of my site posted on the web at www.wizardsoftheweb.cjb.net (http://www.wizardsoftheweb.cjb.net) . I used Geocities to post it since their policy is the most agreeable. The site is by no means finished at the moment, but I am only one person and only a week ago I had no idea how to create a web site. Now its on to composing and posting the actual content of the page, whish I have written with the future in mind for easy expansion and upgrading. I know it still needs a lot of work and I would appreciate any suggestions you could make. I still need to master javascript so I can make the News page easier to upgrade. Do you know of a good javascript code for a forum?

Nice start. I think I played the game where that wizard graphic came from ... Dark Legions was the name of the game, I think.

It's a great beginning, except for the nagging javascript error I get everytime I load it. And have you viewed your page in Netscape? Hehehe, you might wanna do that and do the necessary adjustments.

As for Javascript, the best place to go would be JavaScripts.Com (http://www.javascripts.com)

Netscape doesn't support cascading stylesheets as good as IE does, especially if it has something to do with layout manipulation (hell, they can't even support hover links!).

What I would suggest is to recreate the whole site without using linked stylesheets (.css), but instead type out the contents of those stylesheets on the page itself. Then see which works and which doesn't.

This was the main reason I stopped using CSS on this site - Netscape users just can't appreciate the design because the browser does all the tables wrong.

Try using simple tables for now. The try to add on to it gradually and see if Netscape accepts the code. Browser compatibility is one of the all-time biggest headaches of web designers, so your problems are actually pretty normal http://www.opentechsupport.net/forums/smile.gif

Hehehe
