Browser compatibility

[Brian]

Designed a site in FP2002 (my first, I'm learning as I
go) and finished, but now no other user except IE can
view it properly. I know there is a compatibility area to
check when first creating the pages (which I didn't know
about at the time), my question is: How can I fix this
issue without redoing the entire site (over 50 pages)? Is
there a line of code or something I can paste into the
existing pages so that Netscape users can view this site
as well? thanks in advance...

OK, did a validation of the main page and found that I
have no DOCUMENT tag..dunno if this is the problem or
not, but this is driving me crazy.

Validators won't catch incompatibilities in your Dhtml script menu if that is where the problem is
Note:
In one tag you have a style tag which should be in the head section
<font face="Verdana" size="1" color="#C0C0C0">
<STYLE TYPE='text/css'>#DM9571656 {visibility:hidden;}</STYLE>

Then apply the style to whatever element you want to use it in with id="DM9571656"

Thanks for the input Stefan. I think that css is residue
from when I ripped apart and rebuilt the site entirely
and I dont think that it holds any meaning for the pages
any more. I wish it was as simple as removing this line
of code, but I don't think that this will resolve the
compatibility issues that I'm having. Did a page count
last night (this morning) and found that I have 198 pages
that need to be fixed somehow. Wow am I bummed. Anyone
else out there have any ideas on how to make a site which
was built in FP (geared towards MSIE to begin with)
compatible with all browsers without redoing the entire
site? Thanks again!
