Hi,

I tested your page in IE4.0 and NN4.73

1)I see a some differences in your background-colors. In the left part and right part off the screen (I have 17"), this is left and right of your tabel, I see an annoying background with dark en light lines.

Your back_ground.gif occers this, because if you enlarged this gif you'll see that it has lines in 2 different colors #990000 and #993333. you should change this gif to only one color #990101 like your backgroundcolor in the table.

2) Why use <body bgcolor=&quot;#CC9967&quot; ??? Why not bgcolor=&quot;#990101&quot; so you allways have the same color if the back_ground.gif cannot load for some reason.

3) The image home-Page-Cut_19.jpg has an annoying left and bottom border.

4) If I was your customer I wouldn't agree that the link to &quot;DeZine Post&quot; will start in the same browser. Now you loose focus from the customers site. Start this in a new browser with target=&quot;_blank&quot;

5)I see differences in colors between the corners of the images like i.e. &quot;home-Page-Cut_08.jpg&quot; and the bgcolor=&quot;#990101&quot; Try to make these colors the same.

6)I'm sorry to say, but the menu-bar (I think it's one from dynamicdrive.com) on the page &quot;about_lactose.htm&quot; don't work in IE4.0 It works OK in NN4.73

7) In the first sentences Welcome to the new home of..... it looks like &quot;The Lactose-Free Lady&quot; and &quot;The Lactose-Free Cookbook!&quot; are links. Personaly I hate this. You always want to click on it.

8) The list in What's new looks OK in IE4.0 The <li>'s are centered here. In NN4.73 the <li>'s are not centered and the <li>-text's are black.
Try this for the color in IE and NN:
<li><fontcolor=&quot;lightgrey&quot;>text</font></li>

9) Because I only could test the menu-bar in NN, this is what I saw in NN: After clicking the links 'about the book' and 'get the book, .. &quot; the menu-bar-bgcolor change to ligtht-yellow and the link-color change to yellow and that's verry annoying. The colors change back after clicking one of the other 4 links.

10) On the six pages from the links in the menu-bar the right-bar is interrupted on diffferent places by the default bgcolor. I think some other images overwrite the <td> width the image right_border.gif

Sorry to have so much comment, but I Hope this helps you

Hi here i'm again:

About point 10)
I saw in IE4.0 on the page &quot;about_lactose.htm&quot; (where the menu-bar don't work) that the right bar is not interrupted at all. So now I think that probably the javascript code from the menu-bar has someting to do with that interrupting.

I think you used the menu &quot;Dynamic-FX Slide-In Menu (v 6.5)All&quot; on
This demo on dynamicdrive also NOT works for me in IE4.0 and works OK in NN4.73 (So the are wrong with that it works for all IE-browsers !!!)

Try to use another menu.

Beware !! this one also don't work for mr:

Good luck,
Erik

No worries at all I appreciate any input. I did notice the right bar in NN. Couldn't over come it though. The link to my site is in my contract. As far as the lower left corner and the link 'looking' text, I agree, this was the spec though.
But yes thanks for the input. DeZiner
