Hi Dayn,

Sorry for the delay just got in.

Thanks for the mail I have sorted the problem out.
Turns out it was the browser text size set above normal,
and the CSS I had was overridden by a font size setting
that had slipped back in there i.e. <font size="2"> should
of been set to none.

Regarding the black lines is that every time you first try the page ?
For some reason every now and then the browser doesn't quite
build the page correctly. Leaving thin black lines in different areas
it only seems to happen on the very first load beacause all the pages
beyond the flag page use the same jpg images.

I have had it myself in a number of browsers. I may set a carbon copy
image as a complete table background to mask it.

Thanks for taking the time and your kind offer of assisatance.

regards,

Darren Yates

Darren:

I'm looking at it in IE5.5, on Win2K Pro SP2a and the only thing
I notice is the "lines" I see until I refresh.

I assume, by this time you may have already taken some advice
from this list and fixed the font issue -- I've just not had the time
to sort through your code.

However, this is also an "open" post to thelist -- does anyone else
see all the "lines" when the page first loads up? Or is it just me?

Basically what I see is black "lines" that appear b/w all the images
and I guess it is just the fact that the site background is black, yet the
images are on a white background and, blah, blah, blah.

Sorry to ramble -- just trying to figure out if it is a problem for me or
if others see it.

Darren, if you still have not gotten some of your issues cleared up you
can email me offlist and I'll see what I can do to help you w/ your
limit in time -- I'm here working all day online so email away!

Thanks!

(djc: do I need to pay w/ a tip?)

Hi I'm new here as of 20mins ago.
And I'm gonna be really rude and jump straight in with
a question. Problem is I need to get this fixed in order to
get paid before the end of the day. So I hope you will
all forgive me and allow me to do the introductions later.
Could any one with a minute to spare have
a quick glance at this.

It's screenshot of www.odaban.com in IE6. I'm sure the
problem is to do with the spacer gif's used in the page but why.
Is something disabled in the browser ?
It uses an image preload Javascript to load the images so I disabled
Java and had a look myself. The page loads fine although
certain effects and links don't work obviously. Only IE6 to on this
one persons machine, very strange. Fine for me and others in
NS 4.5, 4.7, 6.2, IE 5, 5.5 & 6.
