SignWriting List

Thank you so much Angus. I really appreciate your tech support!

And of course you are right. I did have percentages and pixels
confused in the total table width.

I have worked on it, and re-posted it now. But something really weird
is happening..In my web design software, it works
beautifully...seamlessly from page to page without any jerking.

But I then posted those same pages, and in Netscape they flash from
page to page. And in Internet Explorer they flash from page to page
on only some pages, and other pages do it seamlessly with no flash!

So the goal is to have no flashing but a smooth transition from sign to sign.

The pages start:

In this case, I don't think we can fault the web design software...It
is my lack of knowledge. I never tried to do a seamless dictionary
like this before. There is clearly something I am doing wrong and I
am clueless ;-)

Thanks so much for your help - And thanks to Jerry too, for your
information...as soon as I can get this to work properly, I will be
happy to experiment with the sizes for you, Jerry -

Val ;-)
