Can a few people check out my site for rendering problems and report
back to me. I'm not anywhere near finished but I need to know if
everything appears to be working. It looks ok to me with Mozilla but I
haven't installed Opera and don't use IE. My one box with Safari
installed is still in the storage facility.
Thanks,,
James

James,
Opera
Version 7.54 Final
Build 751

Checked out many pages of your site - had no trouble seeing everything
(rendering O.K.) or navigating (except for the incomplete areas, of
course ;-)
Cheers,
Lyle

Using IE (5.x and 6.x) it renders fine.
However I find the left nav area disconcerting from a usability point of
view. Very annowing to have to keep scrolling back up to click for different
sections of the page. A nav tool is supposed to help minimize scrolling, but
that's just my opinion [as a professional in the field]

I want to thank everyone for the input. David pointed out that the nav
panel on the left side of the screen moves with the scroll bar in IE 5.x
and 6.x, I had viewed the site at a friends office last week and
noticed that with Mozilla and Firefox the nav panel was static as I
wanted, but with IE it moves with the scroll action. It must be a bug
in my CSS code or in the way IE uses CSS. Anyone have any suggestions?

Nope. In fact, I didn't even notice your nav bar scrolled under !IE and
was static under IE. I just checked my own site (where under !IE, the
navigation box does scroll) under IE, and yes, it screwed up there too! So
I guess this is a definite CSS bug under IE (I don't think it supports the
fixed attribute). Not that I care about IE any more.

Rumor has it that James Rice may have mentioned these words:

Win2K SP4,
Mozirra Firefox 0.8
IE6
Seem to work fine...

Looks good under IE 6.0 (Windows XP Home Edition) and Mozilla Firefox
0.9.2 (Windows XP Home Edition). There is a slight problem with the side
navigation under Mozilla 1.4 (Slackware 9x with Linux 2.4), as you can see
here:

Other than that, it looks great.

to make it easier to navigate around the site)
