The "Webmaster's" apologies:
I am constantly amazed how authoring programs and browsers display the same HTML code so very differently. As originally set up and formatted by an authoring program, the text and graphics looked fine and balanced, but after being uploaded and viewed with a browser, a great deal of it was seriously displaced.
I set about converting all text boxes into frame layers and the results, when viewed by IE5 were much improved. Shortly after the introduction of IE5.5, however, I received messages from various visitors to tell me that text was obscuring other text and some graphics. After "upgrading" to IE5.5 myself, I saw that it appeared to be caused by the variation in the interpretation of fonts and their sizes, so I have had to modify the attributes of all the text on this site to make it conform with the way IE5.5 displays it.
This, sadly, means that to some other browsers - as it does to the authoring program - text may appear to be very small, and while IE5.5 originally spread everything sideways, I see that when viewed with a version of Netscape, text tends to be compressed horizontally and spread vertically down the screen! I regret that I have yet to find a way of correcting both of these problems simultaneously.
