I have just completed a full website for my company. First time and by no means an expect.
http://www.imaginative-traveller.com.
In Front Page I arranged each of my pages with drop down boxes showing dates and prices of each tour, over 300 of them. Now I find that Netscpae users see only ugly text and no drop down box. Have I done something wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Can't blame me for this one - I didn't add that feature. I won't mention TeRRa's name, but the person responsible for this hack will be notified :P

If you open your pages in a text pad, you can manually change these rather easily just copying and pasting.
For more information on this visit:
http://www.aota.net/Pre-Installed_Scripts/redirectionmenus.php3
Since it appears that you have no need for the "submit" button you can delete the following code from what the script outputs to you
<input type="submit" value="Go" align="absmiddle">
Hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know. I will also examine your code to see if I can find an easier fix.

Ok, I have found your problem. On each page you will need to add the following line before each of your menu items.
<form ACTION="http://www.imaginative-traveller.com/cgi-bin/CNCjump2.pl" METHOD="POST">
In your code it would go right after
<select name="D2" size="1"
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp]style="background-color: rgb(255,135,15); text-align: center; margin-left: 1px; margin-right: 3px"
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp]tabindex="1">
So basically the first part of each scroll down code will look like something like:
<form ACTION="http://www.imaginative-traveller.com/cgi-bin/CNCjump2.pl" METHOD="POST">
<select name="D2" size="1"
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp]style="background-color: rgb(255,135,15); text-align: center; margin-left: 1px; margin-right: 3px"
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp]tabindex="1">
Again test this on one page to insure it works then move on fixing it the rest of your pages.
If you need further help just ask :)

Marty:[nbsp][nbsp]Interesting site--welcome to FQ!
You'll have to watch your stats, but if I excluded NS as a site-compatible browser, 30% of my visitors would be pushed away.[nbsp][nbsp]That's sorta at odds with a website's purpose.
There've been a number of discussions here about making sites cross-browser compatible so you might want to do some searching to learn the tips and tricks of the pros here (which I am not and explains my very basic design websites)!
(ah, elite found the fix--nice!)
