Gloria, Thanks for your help. I do believe we now have a handle on her problem and she has now fixed it. Also thanks for sending the link below, I had used it on a previous web site years ago, then lost the link. Just ran it, and the "alt" in the body, was mentioned too. ;-) Overall, tho, I did pretty darn good on all the ratings. The worst was marked "good". Still can improve, as it is a work in progress. Thanks again for all your help, it is appreciated. Melinda Gloria Bronte Lane wrote: > > Well, I noticed in your body your have an "alt" which I don't think is > valid for Body.
