Thanks! By the way, I followed your tutorial from http://www.pageresource.com/dhtml/jtut6.htm to make the links. In spite of the Netscape bug, I'm still very happy with the look on both pages where I used them.

As far as I know, browser support has been choppy for css and layers and such so far. There are still quite a few things that need to be fixed in both browsers.

I don't know if this one has a better explanation or not..? If I find something though I'll put it up here.

Hi, thanks for the response. I had also thought that it must be because I'm generating the text with JavaScript. However, I created another webpage that does NOT dynamically write the text but still has the same problem. So it must be connected to the layers I'm using for links (this page uses the same type of links). Here's the other page that's doing the same thing: AFSAPAC webpage. Only the first two links matter because the others go to outside pages. Here's the source text for the profile page. I'm thinking maybe it's similar to when you open a document and you haven't specified width or height for an image, and it at first leaves the wrong size space for the image. But, as far as I can tell, I can't specify the coordinates for the layers because they're actually inside inline layers. Oh well. It isn't a really critical problem, but it is kind of annoying that I can't fix it. I did fix the closing tags, but unfortunately it didn't help. Oh well. If you can think of anything else that I might check, please let me know! Thanks very much, Phyllis

This problem is most likely caused because you are dynamically writing your HTML. Similar things often happen with server-side programming.

One thing I noticed is that you are missing the </html> tag at the end of you page.
