Hi,

Anyone know how to solve this problem. I was sent
this from a user (who will remain anonymous) who
is having problems viewing this site.


I am using netscape 4.7 on windows.

Whenever I access the board, I get a blank screen totally.

if i hit "reload" the screen pops up for fraction of second.

I do that repeatedly. same thing

Only when I the select netscape "STOP" does the screen appear.

Previously, this indicates a problem with html tags.


I hate Netscape, websites would look amazing if everyone had IE 5+. BUT since Netscape is the only decent Linux (and some other platforms) web browser then I guess compatiability is an issue, Why don't Microsoft release IE on Linux? Why they release it on the one relatively small UNIX os instead of Linux is a mystery!.

I had the same problem with my site. Wouldn't load under Netscape until i pressed stop, just like that user.

I went through my html code and noticed I hadn't closed a couple of tags. That solved the problem. But it only happened for netscape running on linux and not on netscape on my win2k workstation.

Wish I could help more. I have no problems accessing WHT on my linux box or on my win2k workstation. Maybe you should have the user reinstall or upgrade his/her version of netscape.

99.9% of the time this represents an HTML error. Netscape is so strict with tags, that you can actually use Netscape to test your site for HTML errors. Usually it's just a missing closing tag somewhere.

I just ran my HTML validator through a page, you have FONT, TD, TR and A tags that are not closed.

it is a table problem... make sure you have all your </TD> </TR> and </TABLE>

Fonts tag can create a problem but not as important as teh table ones... these will prevent anything from being displayed at all

I don't have a problem and I use netscape. I always have.

I guessed that you installed a hack on this board Matt, correct? Something that altered the template file possibly?
