Okay, I'm stumped.  If you tried that dhtml page I've been working on at
(http://www.familyforever.org/public/ageared.html), in NC4 you'll note a
brown, slotted sidebar on the left side (the one with the moving gears in
it).  It's a background image.  Not sure if everyone else is having the
following problem, but if you use IE4 to access that page the background
sidebar doesn't download.  Though a nonconventional use of the background
attribute, I added it to the <DIV> tag for that section (layer) of the
page.  

The code reads like this:

<DIV id="LayoutRegion3LYR"
BACKGROUND="http://www.familyforever.org/images/sidebar.gif"><LAYER
id="LayoutRegion3LYR" VISIBILITY=INHERIT  TOP=0 LEFT=0 WIDTH=121 HEIGHT=525
Z-INDEX=3  BACKGROUND="http://www.familyforever.org/images/sidebar.gif" >

Why I'm stumped:  if I load the page into IE4 from my C:/ drive, the
background image is downloaded from the web site and used in the <DIV>.  If
I load the page from the web site, the background image doesn't load.  I've
tried checking things by clearing the image from the cache, reloading from
the web, etc.  But regardless of the combination, the image will only if I
load the page from my C:/ drive.  

Everything works fine in NC4, btw, but that's because the <Layer> tag
"officially" allows the use of the background attribute.
