I set up a website that works great in FP 2002. I
published it to my host provider's server and it looked
good when I clicked on the 'click here to view published
web'. I booted up IE6 and netscape 7 and it looked
great. But several friends I asked to look at it saw a
white background not the background picture I used. I re-
published and looked again and it was fine for both
browsers. But not for my friends. They live in
different cities, used different ISPs, different types of
connections, different types of PCs, not that any of that
should make any difference.
The site can be virwed at bill.goldschein.name

Any ideas?

If you look at the "View Source", you'll see that the background picture is
pointing to a file on your local computer. It's not in the web.

File | Import the image into a folder in your web *before* inserting in the
page and saving.
