Mac users viewing website!

Sorry, I thought this was Alaska.....
The site is www.rushsoccer.com.
I've had many complaints with Mac users stating they cannot view the website
at all. Don't have any idea how to fix this.

Need some help.

Thanks.

This is a Dreamweaver page, no?

Can you be more specific? Does nothing come up at all? That opening page
comes up OK for me in IE5/Mac, Safari, and FF1.

I suppose it all depends on what "this" is. ;-)
I've had many complaints with Mac users stating they cannot view the

at all. Don't have any idea how to fix this.

I viewed your web site on my Windows XP machine, and then on a Mac using
both Safari and Mac IE. I was able to view it on all 3 browsers. In the
Safari browser, the GIF background image did not animate.

Now, if these users are complaining that they "cannot view the website at
all" chances are they have a dial-up connection to the Internet. Why?
Because your background GIF image is 384 KB in size (almost half a MB). On a
dialup connection, that could easily take over a minute to load.

An image in a web page should never be over 100KB in size. In fact, the
entire web page, including images (and a SWF in your case) should be under
100KB in size. Otherwise you're going to have situations such as you have
now. Worse, many people won't have the patience to wait, and will browse
elsewhere.
