Mozilla v Netscape browsers

New user. Items saved used a netscape browser do not display the same from
a mozilla browser. Also, some clip art posted using netscape do not even
show up on mozilla.

What? Moz and Netscape use the same render engine. Show me a page like
this, please.

Which Netscape? Could it be an older version than NS6? NS6 and above use
the same engine as Mozilla. What exactly does not display the same? If
text, have you specified font face or size in the page code or where
either left to default? If using an uncommon font, do both browsers have
access to it? Or are the browser defaults being served or possibly
overriding the preferences set for them in your coding?

The issue re clip art 'posted using netscape' makes no sense to me. How
standard web format files are uploaded (assuming you mean you used a
built in FTP function of a particular netscape browser to upload) should
not matter. But the format they are uploaded in will. Is the clipart
uploaded in standard web formats such as .jpg, .gif or .png? Are they
properly named files for the web- containing only alphanumerics, no
spaces and no special characters other than a period, hyphen or
underscore? Does the file name include it's extension? And if in .png
format, does the particular browser you're using in which images do not
show able to handle .png? Or could they be uploaded as .bmp which is a
windows format that is not intended for the web so that some browsers
may not be able to display them.

The URL to the page would be helpful -- that's what Murray was asking for!
He never said anything about a screen capture.

Which version of Netscape?
In my experience Netscape 4 and Netscape 6 do render differently from
Firefox and Netscape 7, Netscape 8 can render using either Firefox or IE
engines.
Mozilla 1.3 is Netscape 6, later versions are close to Netscape 7.
Firefox and Netscape 7 are virtually identical.

Try cleaning up your stylesheets. Both contain errors. For instance .....

div#title {position: absolute; left: 5px; top: 10px; border-bottom: 3px
solid #000000} (last parameter missing end ;)

div#foot {position: absolute>} (missing positioning parameters, also
remove right bracket)

table#footertable {width="545px"} should be {width:545px;}


How any particular browser decides to display bad code is a crap shoot :)
