Err Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Hmm. Lets try two things:1. Try to avoid the use of spaces for file names, the space in Quarter note.png might be contributing to your problem. You can use underscores if you would like.2. Last I heard, IE has some trouble with .png images. Try converting your images over to .gif or .jpg.Give those a try.

real_illusions Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 ie6 doesn't render transparent png's properly.Plus your mouseovers aren't defined according to firebug, and have errors galore. You can use CSS for your rollovers instead of Javascript. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john19681 Posted October 8, 2007 Author Share Posted October 8, 2007 I debugged it (or at least my version or debugging, taking stuff out and seeing what happens) and i found out that it's the javascript thats screwing it up, and not actually the javascript itself, but the link to the javascript, the <script> thingy in the <head>, but i still dont know what to doEDIT: ok i just put a </script> at the end of that thingy in stead of a < />. now it's just plain screwed up, but oh well it's better than before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone tell me why?sorry if it's an eyesore....Whenever having problems with a web page, validate the web page here:http://validator.w3.org/You will get detailed errors about what is wrong. For example, what currently still needs to be done is to specify a character encoding for your site.There is a big bonus for this: if your page correctly validates, then in 99% of the cases you don't need to worry about browser compatibility, including future browser developments.
