layers and Netscape 4.7

I'm missing something, here.<br />
<br />
I've created a web page with layers and CSS and it looks great in<br />
I.E. However, in Netscape 4.7, the page loses all images and CSS styles.<br />
Not that it probably matters, but I have inserted the Netscape bug resizing fix<br />
code.<br />
<br />
What gives? I thought Netscape is supposed to be able to see layers?<br />
<br />
BTW: I used Adobe Go Live, v.5 to do this. I am right about the fact that<br />
Go Live uses the "floating boxes" tool as the layer creation tool? Is that where<br />
I went wrong?<br />
<br />
Thank you in advance.<br />

waizen<!--content-->Netscape 4.x does support layers. It was the first browser to do so, as a matter of fact. But about what you're asking... could I possibly see your page/code? I have (on another machine) Netscape 4.x on a Windows 98 computer so I could take a look for ya...<!--content-->Thank you for responding.<br />
<br />
Attached is the website's work in progress. I had taken it home to look at it on<br />
Netscape 6.2 and, of course, it worked beautifully.<br />
<br />
I am perplexed. Any help is appreciate it. Otherwise, I'm going to have to rework the whole thing in pure tables.<br />

Willi<!--content-->OK, great, I'll take a look at it when I have more time later.<!--content-->This is cross-posted on the CSS forum.<!--content-->Oh. Was the question answered or does he still need help?<!--content-->I had a similiar layer problem in Netscape 4 as well. But I used <ilayer> and <layer> tags instead of <div> tags. It worked and it's not too shabby.<br />
<br />
Here are some URL's to great info on these layer tags:<br />

Thank you both for responding to my posts. Yes, the question was cross-posted (is that a no-no?). I thought it might be relevant to both forums.<br />
<br />
Up to this time, I had not been able to try out the suggestions you both gave me but will try to sometime today (Saturday). I took the project home with me to work on without the hustle of my job getting in the way. Will post my progress if you like.<br />
<br />
Again, thanks for all your help.<br />
