Strange...I used a simple Javascript redirection routine that should've work fine...I'll see if I can fix it with the hour or so, and if not, simply strip all the script out. Thanks for the input.

Which version are you using, Paul?...I tested it both with NN3 and NN4.04 and it appears to work fine...Nonetheless, I'll have a look. Cheers! Marc

Thanks Mike...Not sure what the problem is...I used a pretty simple redirection routine that would look at the user's screen size, and then load the appropriate page. I hadn't yet tested on IE, but the script was supposed to have been cross-browser. =P Cheers! Marc

I get the problem only if I select 1024x768 - it works fine if I select 800x600. Earlier it went wrong whichever I chose. Now I can see what a lot of goodies there are here - it'll take me quite some time to digest it all. :-) BTW this is what I get if I select 1024x768 (displayed as text in the browser window and not when I select page source - although if I select page source I get the same thing, I use Netscape Communicator 4.05).... <head> <title>SimRacing Online</title> </head> <frameset frameborder="0" framespacing="0" border="0" rows="30,*"> <frame src="header.html" name="header" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" noresize> <frameset cols="180,*"> <frame src="menu.html" name="menu" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" noresize> <frame src="body.html" name="body" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="auto" noresize> </frameset> <noframes> <body> </body> </noframes> </frameset> </html> Paul

With IE 4.0 v4.72.3110, I get "an error has occurred in the script on this page. Line 8, char 9, Error 'Java is not defined', code 0." Typical of Microsoft to have their own interpretation of Java, eh? I think I'll stick to NN until Microsoft makes them broke, Paul
