Hello Jean
<The links are not actually on the words, but on the little pictures
above the words - the ones that become coloured when the curser is
rolled over them (and the arrow turns into a hand)>
To which my reply is "What little pictures?" The arrow stays an arrow
except on the five blocked links on the lefthand side. Yes, I do have
pictures showing on all other sites. I am using Windows XP on a high
spec Sony laptop with automatic Windows and Sony updates.
I've looked at the site using all the Mac browsers I have (Safari,
Netscape, IE, Opera, Firefox, iCab, Mozilla, Camino and Sunrise; they
all work fine (the only one which doesn't is Amaya which is a bit odd
anyway).
Assuming you've gone from
http://www.forum-alte-spitze.de/
and clicked on the USA flag to go to
http://www.forum-alte-spitze.de/FAS_Hauptseite_e.html
you should see white lace on a black background
'Forum (logo) alt Spitze' in blue with some cream lace hanging from the
logo.
White on blue navigation boxes to the left (hand curser which tells you
there are links to other pages)
below that a b&w picture with the yellow words 'outlook/news'
seven other b&w pictures scattered over the page with white writing
below each.
When you put your curser over any of the b&w pictures they become
coloured and the curser changes to a hand, again to tell you that it's
pointing to a linked page.
I've run the page through the W3C validator and it came back with 76
errors - the first of which was the lack of a doctype declaration which
can cause a lot of problems. There is also a lot of JavaScript but the
script type isn't defined, so that could be the problem. The page
appears to have been put together using Adobe GoLive and has a lot of
proprietary stuff in there which doesn't validate, so another possible
reason why your browser doesn't like it.
Do you have any browsers other than IE7 installed on your PC? It's
always worth having at least one other browser there just for occasions
like this when the one of your choice doesn't like a particular
website.
