    My website will load in explorer but not in firefox. In FF the page loads but no images, background or buttons. Seems to work fine in exploerer. Here is a link to the site www.publicpursuithunting.com Any information on why will help. Thanks.

    Notice you used back slashes:
    
    <base href="http:\\www.publicpursuithunting.com">
    Code (markup):
    That makes the url look like so:
    
    http://\\www.publicpursuithunting.com/dewey%202.gif
    Code (markup):
    You should also rename those image files to rid them of spaces.

    cheers,

    gary

    Change the <base> tag in the header of your page from
    <base href="http:\\www.publicpursuithunting.com">
    Code (markup):
    to
    <base href="http://www.publicpursuithunting.com">
    Code (markup):
    and it should start working fine in Firefox.
    Agree, renaming images to use underscores instead of spaces is a good idea.

    Hate to ask you but I downloaded FF and had to uninstall again. The site works in FF? Could you try again and see if it works when you navigate around the site. Thanks
