I'm using Eudora Light, and it's not given me problems. I get maybe one a day. But then again -- I'm using win3.1, not win9x. In the filter set-up put À̳ëÄ¿¹Â´ÏÄÉÀÌ¼Ç (use copy/paste) in the FROM box and direct it to a mailbox called SPAM. (g) For reasons that elude me, Light filters don't actually put stuff in the TRASH when told to; so I've set up a SPAM box instead, and delete the whole thing every few days.

Lee, I use Eudora and have had no problems but I see you are using Eudora Lite and I have Pro. Could be the reason. Have you upgraded to the 5.1 free version? I wish there was a way to make a filter using the Korean characters but I'd never be able to figure it out.

I have installed a counter on a main page and also on the sub pages. The problem is that each counter is adjusted when someone opens the main page. Do I need to have a unique counter for each sub page? hmwalden@cox-internet.com Harry Walden, Georgetown, TX http://www.rootsweb.com/~txwcgs/WCGS.html

I'm not sure what you mean by 'find'. The URL you give sends me right to your page (although you don't need to have the /index.html part in there). Do you mean in the index? Your page will be indexed nightly, according to the Title of your index.html webpage, not your account name. At this time, your page title is <.TITLE>Index of Walkup Family Photographs<./TITLE> so it will be indexed under the Is. I suggest changing that to "Walkup Family Photograph Index", so that it is indexed in the Ws. Also, what is in your Title is what shows up in the menu bar of your visitors, and as the Title in search engine results. Hope this helps, Valorie

Netscape is not as bad as the new IE6 ???????? If you have info in tables IE and netscape would left justify the text if not specified. IE6 will center justify if not specified, which most people did not specify left in the past. Another problem with IE6. If you use a table specifying a certain number of pixles wide to keep text out of a certain area IE6 does not reconize this unless history and faveretes are turned off. When it would runn off the right side of the screen with IE5, 4, and 5.5 and Netscape IE6 will make the unused cell specified to be a certain width samller to keep it all on the screen. Not good if you use that to keep text out of a dark area of the background. If you put a clear GIF in that cell IE6 will display it correctly. There is always a solution to all problems. If you use a high speed connection and the pages are large but load good ask someone using a dial up connection to test them out before linking them up. They may have to be broken into smaller pages for dialup connections. You don't want to exclude dialup connections from all the good information that you are putting on line. With my DLS service I had both connections for testing them out, but the modum went that is built onto the mother board and no unused slot for another one, so I have others check them out with a modum. Time for a new system I guess. I use Netscape as my primary browser, and IE for testing to make sure the page will work on both. Any system will allow you to have them both installed, and specify which is to be used when you connect to the internet. If you are making a lot of pages that is a good idea to have them both for testing.

It worked perfect with my Netscape 4.77, loaded in a second. Michelle

Scott Burow <sburow@swbell.net> speaks of his darned HTML problems; It's still got a few bugs in it, but at least it appears on the screen now. Missing tags and bad or sloppy code can reduce the grandest design to a world wide wait. Your page <http://www.rootsweb.com/~iljodavi/> appears fine in good ol' Navigator 4.08 for Mac. However, BBEdit counted 192 syntax errors and 37 warnings for that one page! Best of luck to you. -- Michael Emery

Thanks to everyone who tried out my missing page in Netscape. It was a silly error of forgetting to end a table with a /table. We miss the obvious sometimes. It's still got a few bugs in it, but at least it appears on the screen now. Thanks! Scott

Scott Burow wrote: > Has anyone had any experience with pages not loading in Netscape that load > fine in IE? > > I've a lady visiting one of my sites who says that (when she loads the > index.html page) : Scott, it is not Netscape. I just tried your pages with Netscape 4.73 and Netscape 6.2 and the page came up fine with both versions. It did load a little bit slow but not that slow. She may just need to reboot her computer if she is low on memory preventing the page to completely load. And the background is lavender on my screen not blue ;>) Netscape is a little more precise in its coding requirements so an error in coding will show up quicker with Netscape than with IE which will tolerate more sloppy construction. But I don't think that is the problem here as both versions worked fine. Norma Jennings

I had no problem in NS 4.78, Opera 6.0, or IE 6.0. The usual problem however, when there are tables, is an unclosed tag. Run your page through one of the validators, and you'll see the problem.

Thanks John! That does it quite well. Judging the other responses my question received (which I appreciated by the way), I'm sure that many of us didn't realize we had the necessary tool at hand all along. Your answer illustrates my point about the benefits of responding to the list quite well. Lee ----- Original Message ----- From: "John" <longstrt@gs.net> Subject: Re: [RW-Help] Backwards Soundex Go to http://resources.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/soundexconverter and enter any name with the soundex you want to reverse. It will give you the soundex code (which you already know), but ALSO it will give you a list of other names with the same code. And there you have it.

Seeing the image is the best way to find misindexed names. I've seen one name in the AIS indexes, another in Ancestry.com's census images. When I look at the actual image, I sometimes see another possibility. I try to scan first names as well as surnames. That's how I discovered Madison Sprague was sometimes Madison Spear. Another relative switched back & forth from Wait M. to William Morgan Lewis. Go figure! In addition to Soundex, I've tried writing the name over and over. As my penmanship gets worse with repetition, I begin to see other names that might appear in a census index. Aloha, Kathleen
