    Could any of you PC users help me out with my website. http://homepage.mac.com/tgpo The website looks perfect on my mac, but not on a PC. The images don't line up as they should and the text for the video is not in the right place. This sucks, but the fact that I don't have a PC makes it hard for me to fix it. So if anyone can offer their help to me I would greatly appreciate it.

    a couple questions: what browser are you using on your Mac? what HTML prog did you use?
    Laserdiscs are cool, but laserdiscs on DVD-Rs are cooler.

    Looks okay, ecept for the one image on the opening page.

    Here's a tip, and really ANY MAC user should be aware of this. Most MAC apps have this fetish for fonts. Just look at Adobe Illistrator or Page maker. Now Internet Exploder will use a default font if the HTML page uses a custom font it doesn't have. This messes up spacing sometimes.

    Soooooooo, use some universal font, this should help. Also, even looking at the source for the page it won't render correctly, there are all kinds of tabs and extra spaces in the source.

    It looks mostly okay. Actually you will never get a MAC and a M$ box to render exactly the same unless you run straight HTML. Heck, you can't get IE 5.0 and 6.0 to run Java Scripts the same, so a MAC has no chance.

    Which picture?

    I didn't use a custom font in the html....

    I used bbedit lite to edit the html. The tabs and spaces were from my coding the html program style.

    The main frame documents has no bgcolor, so it renders in grey on my default Mozilla. I guess that's not what's intended? Otherwise it looks OK on Linux/Mozilla

    When you say main frame do you mean where the news is listed? The background color for it is silver.

    Oh, it was on purpose? Oopps - sorry! I often make that mistake myself, just testing in IE (with white as default bg) just to find out that it loks a bit "different" in Netscape et al with grey as default bg...

    It should look like this
    https://www.videohelp.com/tgpo.htm

    The table was not entirely correct.
    <td width="400" height="20"> News: </td>

    should be

    <td width="400" height="20"> News: </td>
    <td height="20"></td>

    or use colspan="2" in the news column.


    And you must have some weird characters in the top table rows because if I removed some empty space(before and after the <img src> the top rows looks okey in internet explorer.

    Oops. I guess they weren't the same. I probably would have never noticed, if you didn't point that out.
