Netscape problem

[Jeanne D]

I have a page that looks OK in IE, but not so OK in Netscape;

http://jeannedecarolis.com/about_us_etea2.html

Where did I go wrong? Thanks a lot for any info. I ended up redoing
this page, removing the style and using the dreaded font tag to keep
the text from spilling over.

Netscape what? 4.x? 6/7? 8?

Uses HTML 3.2. Why? HTML 4.01 came out about a decade ago and is well
supported.

Except it doesn't /really/ use HTML 3.2 as can be checked from a simple
automated check:

Abuses tables for layout.

Your alt text leaves something to be desired...

7.1 - the text flows out of the table and is not justified.

Thanks for the comments.

Why are you using heading elements <H2> for paragraphs of text? <h1>
<h2> <h3>... are for just that, headings; paragraphs should be in <p>
elements...style them accordingly if you want to change from the default.

Thank you, the page is looking much better and the initial problem
seems
to be fixed.

Please, if you are going to use that abomination known as google groups
to post to usenet, learn how to use it properly:

Better yet, get yourself a real newsreader.

If you're still referring to

then perhaps you should zoom text a notch or two and see how it looks
then. They layout doesn't do so well at enlarged text sizes.

I don't know how IE or netscape displays it, but konqueror seems to butcher
to borders. There are blank spaces just below About Us, and at the bottom
of the image. There is a thin white line and a height change in the ETEA
BODYWORKS & MASSAGE title - it slices the B into a | and a 3. Other than
that it looks ok on the surface.
