O.P. IE difference

and am happy with my work so for.
but ...
when i load it in firfox {default browser} it is perfect, is i want it and as i designed it
but in internet explorer {beta 7 if that's thereason} it makes some of the underlined text not underlined and the other underlining not bold

{i solved the problem with the text colour difference ...GRAY not GREY

RE: IE difference

eewwww at the code of that page
firstly why do you use so many center tags? if you want to whole page centered just have one after the <body> then close it before </body>

anyway the underlineing problem is because you have a mess of tags

code:
<u>
<h1>
<centre>
C.D's,
<br>

Calum's Disco's
</U>

any tags opened inside an element must be closed before the end of the element

so:

code:
<h1>
<u>
C.D's,
<br>

Calum's Disco's
</u>

should work.
All i did was put the <h1> outside the <u> so it can carry on after the u element ends, and i deleted the <centre> because A) its spelt wrong and B) if you just enclosed the entire page with a <center> then you don't need it there.

finally:

code:
<body bgcolor="black">
<body>

wtf, you only need one body element :-/

RE: IE difference

learn xhtml and css, you can do much more with those two together and the code will also look much cleaner + will be easier to update.

a lot of people will fall over that these days, it's just ugly to write code like that. It's better to use small letters for your tags and attributions.

And please tell me why you use frameset if you don't use frames? rows="100%,*" is just stupid

, you're making 2 rows here but at the same time you make sure the 2nd row isn't visible by placing the first one at 100% of the screen and you only give one frame a source. If you're using only one page you don't need frames. Dump the frameset.

true, xhtml is also easy. xhtml is a way to check if your code is browser compatible (but not always true if you use css with it)

for example change your <br> tags to <br /> tags etc. Did you use the tool i sent you yesterday?

RE: IE difference

Don't put off using XHTML until the next re-write: use it now! It's more uniformly supported when used with CSS2, yielding more consistent results. And, since you know HTML, XHTML will come within minutes

Use the W3C Validator to help write valid XHTML.
