Hi All,
When you open a web site and everything on that site overlaps itself, could you tell me what the correct term for that happening is?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi -Peter,
Its called 'very poor coding' /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Actually, not sure. Maybe leave the site/URL behind for members to peek. Sometimes M$ folks will create a site to be viewed properly by MSIExplorer, and other browsers have a problem. Have you changed the native resolution on your 'puter?

Hi Doug, (been hitting the waves or forced to do some work) /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I bet you could guess the site, because I can't use it.
yep,
Pure MS specific IE Real Estate site. The MLS (Multiple Listing Service).
If I look at it with Safari, it all lines up. If I use FF, is loads on itself.
Without having to bootup a PC and IE, I can get some information using both browsers. But....
Anyway, I thought I'd ask.
Thanks for replying. Enjoy the ride.
Peter

Hey -Peter,
I had an idea it had something to do with your MLS format. But just maybe more folks will cater to: http://realestate.yahoo.com/ Like where is says 'Find a Home' I put in our zip code, and many homes in our area popPed up. This worked fine with Netscape v7.2, and of course Safari v2.0.3. I realize its NOT the same software used by Real Estate agents, but getting from A to B might work.

Well, thanks Doug,
I haven't been to other sites like that for awhile, why, because I get so ... angry.
