First off, this is my first web page. I am using IE(5.5), NS(7.0), and Opera(6) to test the page. I am using Dreamweaver 6.0 to write.<br />
<br />
I created my first page and everything was fine in IE and Opera. The trouble is in NS -- the page completely loads but NS never says "Done", it just continues to say "transferring data from...". <br />
<br />
I rewrote the page adding piece by piece and testing after each addition to try and pinpoint the problem. It seems that as long as I use NO STYLESHEEETS and set NO IMAGE BACKGROUNDS --NS will say "DONE". <br />
<br />
Is anyone familiar with this problem or have any advice?<br />
thanks!<!--content-->Yes.......<br />

I used the validator to see if there was some glaring error with your code that may be the cause of the problem. The validator only found two minor errors, both of which do not seem to be related to your problem. I just reported that fact, in case you had not checked.<br />
<br />
I have no idea what causes this. The usual one is where the </body> and </html> elements are missing from the code. Again, that does not seem to apply here.<!--content-->NS4.x and NS6.x both tell me done, NS6 tells me done in 22 sec.<br />
<br />
and in NS4 you will see that the background doesn't even load.<br />
<br />
also you seem to be confused on the css. you are loading<br />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"pages/background.css"><br />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"pages/horbarBG.css"><br />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"pages/mncamoBG.css"><br />
<br />
all that and then you call the class like this<br />
<br />
<td class="mncamoBG" <br />
<td class="vertbarBG" <br />
<td class="mncamoBG" <br />
<br />
see what I am saying? you don't call the class the exact name of your file. also you can combine all those to make one file. not sure if NS is having probelms with this but it is good practice to name them different. also naming it background might be confusing as the is an attribute name. might be reserved.<!--content-->
