Hi. I'm trying to wrap up this $@#! site and my client is telling me he's having some issues on PC and I'm on a Mac and unable to see what he's talking bout. Would some of you PC users test for me please oh please?
thanks a bunch.

thx guys. Don't know exactly. Client is sending a list. One I know is that he says on some pages, the right line of the boxes (anchored to the left) don't show up? Like its an incomplete image? And he says that the image at very top bounces around from page to page and is distracting. I'm not sure what he's talking about.

I'm using Windows XP and checked your site on both IE 6 and the dreaded Netscape 4.7
Everything looks great on IE 6 -- The photographic images too pixelated for my taste but still OK.
HOWEVER, in Netscape 4.7 -- the fonts are too tiny and in Times Roman, the interface stretches 95% in width (on a screen resolution 1024 x 768), the footer is aligned to the left and the font color is black instead of white. Let me know if you want a screenshot of this.

some things i noticed (i'm on WinXP and IE6):
if you switch back and forth between used equipment and products, you'll notice you have and extra line on the far left of "usedmed.jpg" (i pulled both images up in fireworks, so it's definitely an image problem).
also, the top image shifts about 2 pixels between those 2 pages as well.
and you're having major shift to the right on the contact page (both the text and the top image and navigation).
here's a couple screen shots:

take a look at
see if you can spot your problems - i read the source code and it is poop - never ever ever ever ever ever center an image in a section of a table the image has to be the entire size of a table - this prevents clipping - the pics to jump around - i checked with 3 computers running OS X - OS 9.2 and XP - all the same
remember you can put tables inside of tables inside of tables, too
view the source code for my site and cut and paste in dreamweaver to see what i mean.
it's a puzzle you're building with HTML and all the pieces must be touching each otheralso - your menu text jumps, too
(btw - i've never taken any classes in html - i started 1 year ago by viewing source codes on the internet)
just pretend it's a puzzle. it's an easy fix for your site - just re-slice everything again.
you also may want to try saving any images that contain only text (like your "go" buttons) as gif's so they won't be so grainy as jpg's
