Request for help with tables/iframes...

[jamsa]

I'm on a PC and cannot check a problem I have had with my tables and iframes on a Mac. When I viewed them at my friends house on a Mac, there were some alignment problems or something causing parts of my images to be not visible in the same row I have an iframe placed.

I think it has something to do with how I declared my table widths, or whether or not I use spacer gifs, or ????

It's easier to see than to explain.
I am requesting feedback and advice.

Many, many thanks for your time!

Please note, the problem was not occuring on the first page.
Please go to the "Teachers" and "Schedule" sections and observe the behavior of the tables/images when you move your mouse around and scroll the iframe (on a mac).

Thanks, Pete!
I really appreciate your comments. Yes, I know the font is small, it's a personal preference. For me the tradeoff is more to read without scrolling as opposed to easier to read with more scrolling. And since I am "older" and with eyeglasses, I figure if it works for me it works for others like me...

Thanks,
james

Hey James,

SIte is excellent, a lot of hard work. I dont know why you had your specific problem but the only thing I would say is that iframes are asking for trouble as they have caused me many a nightmare with browser compatibility. If you really want to use it I would suggest trying to do the hard graft with pure frames. Its harder, I know, but a tad better. But I say lose the frames altogether, thats just a personal opinion though...not a technical one!

Cheers,

Works fine on:

Mac Os 9.2.2 Ie 5

Crashes the I-Frames on same Os with netscape communicator4.7.

But that's normal seing that I frames are only netscape comaptible 6x, I think it was anyways, can't remember exactly..

Using IE6 on a PC, I encountered a different problem. In 800 by 600 resolution the whole screen scrolls down (uneccesarily) when clicking on a teacher name. Nice site! Clive

Using ie6 on win98se 800x600

Very nice site evetry thing works ok for me. I didn't get the problem cliveC got of the whole page scrolling but I have small icons with no text for toolbars and very few toolbars open in the top of the browser which I suspect is the difference
