yes, your compatability has changed, tools/page options/compatability make sure IE is checked, you wont get the margins tab if you choose netscape as well.

IE recognizes topmargin and leftmargin, while NS looks for marginwidth and marginheight. If you want margins for both browsers to look the same use the following code altering the zero to whatevr you want. You dont have to change your compatibility to do this asyou will be coding by hand.


<BODY BGCOLOR=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; leftmargin=&quot;0&quot; topmargin=&quot;0&quot;>
