It loads OK and within a reasonable time for me, using dial up at 50666bps and IE
6.0.
How long is the page taking to load in IE you haven't been specific in this
regard....how slow do you consider "too slow" so members on this NG can compare
loading times. It loaded within 1 minute which (which for me is very reasonable
on a dial up connection). Those on broadband/ADSL/Cable, whatever should find it
loads a lot faster.
Are you using FP 2002 ? It has in the bottom right side an tool that estimates
the download time at different speeds and connection types - of course it is only
an estimate since all connections differ from on to the other.
Check it for your guest book page and see what it says at the various connection
types - 14.4k, 28.8k, 33.6k, 56k, ISDN, T1 and T3 (whatever they are....??).
However I have found your guest book works fine - I have posted a message in it.
Also, it may not be just the guestbook page itself but all pages in general that
are loading slowly, since they are not complete I can't give you an opinion on
that.
I have a feeling that your java applet buttons could be the culprit....and
slowing the page loading since the form itself was the *first* thing that loaded
on the page when I tried it.
Java applets for your menu buttons slow down the page loading (and depend on
users having JVM on their system) - you could try DHTML rollover effects using
only table cells, and text links for near to the same effects as you have now.
The effects are created by mouseover events, and changing font colors or sizes or
cell background colors etc (various formatting options).
