Link?  Usually firefox will display anything (and more) that IE will display.

doesn't seem to be using standard javascript linkage.  Try maybe using just html links, I'm not familiar w/ DW so I dunno if that is possible.

Not even sure what Javascript linkage is   :-\

Is there any standard to naming the pages (for the links) as I assume they will simply be another HTML page correct?

thanks guys for the quick responses. +T to both of ya.
It still amazes me the wide verity of Knowledge on this board.

what firefox sees on my end is
Code: [Select]
javascript:;
it should see something like

Code: [Select]
javascript:(page.target);
FYI the links don't work for me in IE either

When you look in your code at the link that appear on the left hand side, you have the following types of code:

<td width="181" height="40"><a href="javascript:;">upcoming shows</a></td>

well... when you really do a href, you should make sure it isnt javascript, make sure it looks like a real addy:

<td width="181" height="40"><a href="forum/forummain.php">upcoming shows</a></td>


Using javascript is fine of course, however I am not sure why you would want to use it to call another page, unless it does so in a fancy manner... I could be wrong though.

As for W3C, see those little check taggy image thingies at the bottom of this forum page?  Good stuff there...

I see . I was confused.   
the links dont work because there is nothing linked to them . I just got started last night after the superbowl.  And ya have to remember Im a virgin at this.
Im just happy after about 8 Wheat beers and a couple of "attitude adjustments"  that any of it works

Yup, I can see it. Perhaps consider trying something like this:
http://www.vphill.com/matt/

(Apologies for the ugly-but-functional page. My CSS used to be on a Comcast page, along with the rest of this site. I just dumped it to a friend's server to preserve it.)

I'm still working on a Python script to scan my archive drives for shows and generate this page automatically, complete with info files. I haven't had much time to do this for a few months.
