Hi all Just wondering if someone running at least Safari 2.04 or Opera 9.2 or even Netscape 9.2. could possibly check this simple two page websiteim working up I already know there is an issue with the flash animations that im still debugging.
but im really interested to see how it links out to the "outside" .mac gallery
and the slideshow on page 2 of the site
Thanks all!!!

IMHO putting a browser restriction on your site is sort of counter productive. Not everyone uses what you list. I don't. I use Netscape 7.01 and see no reason to change.
I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

Running Opera 9.24 and Safari 3.0.3 everything works fine, client page and gallery link in safari, everything works except the quicktime animation on the bottom of the main page in Opera.

nickedshield: he's not restricting his site to only those browsers, he's trying to get feedback specifically from users of them.

Opera 9.0.2 with WinXP. No problems in using the site. Everything works. I'm not entirely sure why anyone would want to make such a complicated solution for a simple web gallery, but it works. I'll give ya extra points for valid xHTML code! It's very rare to encounter sites who take xHTML standards seriously. The actual gallery page is a mess HTML-wise (validates with over hundred errors), but the main page validates ok.

Opera 9.24 with XPx64. Everything works except the 'Back to Album' button in the gallery.

"nickedshield: he's not restricting his site to only those browsers, he's trying to get feedback specifically from users of them."
Correct sir!! I Cobbled this together in 2 hours using the free"I-web" Program that came installed on my new mac book laptop .
It lets me build a simple website very quickly
with drag drop and publish!!
no manual coding on my part all.
I do somewhat know how to code HTML But I truly,truly Hate doing so.
I-web lets me work like a graphic artist instead of a programming engineer.
Apple has done the same thing with its bundled I-DVD and I-movie programs.
it makes thing alot easier for artists.
Thanks to all who took time to check things for me.
Cheers

Looks good in Navigator 9.0.0.1 WinXP - Navigator 9.0.0.1 is the latest version I can find ;)

In response, The way I saw the site, at the bottom of the page it states Quote THIS SITE REQUIRES SAFARI 2.04, NETSCAPE 9.0 OR OPERA 9.2 Unquote That is what I was referring to as far as resstricting. Outside of that the site looked fine.
I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

NO probs nick
The reason I specifically mention those browsers is because FireFox On OSX Just refuses to load the "Client work" page but will load the Linked gallery page.
and Microsoft IE...... FORGET IT!!!
Thanks again Everyone

It works just fine from here. My specs:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.5) Gecko/20070718 Fedora/2.0.0.5-1.fc7 Firefox/2.0.0.5
FWIW, corporate proxy (squid) has no problems passing it through, either.
