How to put this tactfully....

It is very hard to write pages that are compatible with Netscape. I write my pages in raw HTML in Notepad.exe, not an editor. I'm not ready to give up just because Netscape, which represents 5% of web browsers, fails to render a vital tag. BUT, if Netscape is crashing, then I will take the necessary steps to resolve it, of course!

Going back to the "old way" would double the download time for my website. For 33.6k modem users this would be from 13 to 26 seconds.

The only unusual code I am using is this tag:

{td valign=top STYLE="background-image: url('nav/menuback.jpg'); background-repeat: no-repeat"}

Mountainmaster, can you try to load this page:

out-dated link

Ignore the fact that the coral background including the Lionfish repeats. I am simply testing something.
