ok I started out doing my site in Iframes, found that it would not work in NS4.x and have tried to write something to work for both IE and NS. What I wrote has yet to work, and I am not smart/adept enough to know what is wrong with it lol I admit it im stupid but off that topic, Can someone tell me what would make it work so i can get my site working crossbrowser?

<iframe width="355" height="295"><layer width="355" height="295"><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
var ns4 = document.layer;
var ie4 = document.all;
function load("alyssainfo.shtml") {
if (ns4) document.textLayer.src = "alyssainfo.shtml"
elseif (ie4) parent.textFrame.document.location = "alyssainfo.shtml"
}
</SCRIPT>
load("alyssainfo.shtml")
</iframe></layer>

I tried it on http://www.charmedsite.f2s.com/alyssa.shtml and I get the box there but the page doesn't load for some reason.

Also on my site I have the main table set with a background that spans both cells why in NS does it start the background over in each cell? and can that be fixed?

Thanks

I think if you want to do backgrounds in Netscape, you have to cut the image and put part in each cell, it doesn't handle table background images the way IE does.

ok i'll cut up the background and do that, and sasha thats why i did the browser check thing to do layers in NS and iframes in IE since they are the same thing basically with different names. But i have the layer/iframe there in both browsers yet the page that should appear in it won't load.
