I rechecked it in FF after this email and it is working for me. Hmmm.....I wonder what the problem could be. I know it still needs work. It does not work in IE6 from my testing but not sure about later versions. I now realize, from respondent feedback, that I named it incorrectly which caused a lot of confusion. It is not a "slide show" but a "hover show". To view the next window of text, the tabs must be hovered with the mouse. If this still does not work for anyone, I would appreciate an email with the details. I also added a second, less complicated and problematic "hover show" to another page. If anyone is interested in seeing it, the link follows. This is powered by html and css, no scripting. Feedback is always appreciated. Thanks for all of the help. link to second hover show <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/%7Edocex/images.shtml> Lorrie On 01/17/11 10:51, anne-ology wrote: > Just viewed with FireFox - > nothing moves; > what appears to be links, don't open; > when placing the mouse over images, nothing; > > Maybe you're working on this now - hope so. > > From the front, it looks as if you'll eventually have a good site for > genealogists to peruse, > > > > On Sun, Jan 16, 2011 at 2:00 AM,<freepages-help-request@rootsweb.com>wrote: > > >> Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2011 00:21:17 -0600 >> From: Lorrie Laskey<lrmalcom@bellsouth.net> >> Subject: [FreeHelp] website functionality help please >> To: Freepages<Freepages-Help-L@rootsweb.com> >> Message-ID:<4D328E5D.8050104@bellsouth.net> >> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed >> >> List, >> >> Would someone please visit my site and test the slide show?

I know it still needs work. >It does not work in IE6 from my testing but not sure about later versions. =========== I can only check IE 6 and 7 in SuperPreview which is NOT interactive so I can only see the original look and in IE 6 it does not work. Part of the number tabs are above the image and some are below. Looks ok in IE 7 but don't know if it works or not. I can send you a screenshot offlist but someone with those browsers installed really needs to check and see if it works pat
