I have just started bulding WEB pages and have run into the following problme.

I have a page with a table of thumbnail GIFs and description that when the GIF is clicked they transfer to another page to display a larger JPG photo. There is probably a better way to do this. I have started having a strange problem sometimes when I try to display the page from the WEB site the thumbnail will have only the description below but no GIF , or when the mouse moves over the location the URL of the next page doesn't show up. I have the width = 120 and height = 90 set for GIF loading. If I change either of the sizes (width or height) by one, the GIF will load and the URL will show up. This only happens when I load from the WEB. Loads ok from local hard disk. It will also load ok to another machine at the same time, both using Netscape. The same prpblem shows up using IE. I have cleaned out cache.

Any ideas what is causing it?

Maybe a Screenshot or zip with all the files in it?

Not sure how to break this to you, but it looked fine in my browser...

Mike:

That is part of the problem it shows up ok on some systems and not ok on others.

Thanks for taking a look.

It was OK on IE6, Firefox, Netscape 7.1, Opera 7.5.
