Mac Computer Help Request

Hi All,

I have just been informed by an associate that when he views my site on his
Mac, text and some graphics are not visible. I obviously cannot check that
out since I use a pc. I used DW MX and PSP8 to create most of what is on
the site on a WinXP Home OS.

Is there anything I can do to check this reported problem out from my PC?
All shows up fine using IE6, NN7 and Firefox with PC.

Not sure if this has anything to do with it since I am not anywhere near a
Network guru, but my site's Web Host has not resolved yet using my domain
name, I get on there using an IP address number.

Thank you,

T

Then post the IP address. The answer is in the code.

should really really do something about the 408k gif for the background.

hmm. NO text or anything is visible.

two </head></head> tages.

another possible reason- several of the tags like the opening body tag- the
last > is on the next line.

okay, found it.
reason no content shows- the css for the background image:

<STYLE type="text/css">
<!--
BODY {background-image:url(AllagashLake.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center center;
background-attachment:fixed}

</STYLE>

One- it's in the body. should be in the head section.
Two- there's an opening <!-- comment, but no close.

So- Mac IE sees the rest of the code as commented out.

Should be able to find those errors without having a mac around...

Thank you Alan. I am a newbie and am learning. I will heed your advice.

Good luck. Are you from the area?

I grew up in Limestone and Presque Isle. Live in Calais now.

I live in the Camden area, a small town called Lincolnville. I actually
grew up in Waterville. Small world. I made all the corrections you
suggested.

Thanks alot for helping a newbie out.
