Dreamweaver 2004 web page works on pc; not on a Mac

[jennybear webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I have created the following web site: [url]www.psychelp-sos.com.au[/url]. The home page works fine on a pc, but not on a Mac. The spacing and some of the fonts go haywire. Have tested it on Mac OS 9.2.2 and Safari. Problem is not as bad on Safari.

You know that each page on your site is more than 50% menu code right? And
you do know about the non-spiderability of those menus - meaning that your
site will not be ranked by search engines, right?

Your spacing issues are likely caused by the basic table structure on your
pages. Having used DW's Layout mode to build them, you are certain to get
fragile tables that perform poorly, and I'm afraid that is what you are
seeing here. Code like this -

<td width="206" height="1"></td>
<td width="12"></td>
<td width="14"></td>
<td width="35"></td>
<td width="226"></td>
<td width="11"></td>
<td width="4"></td>
<td width="22"></td>
<td width="248"></td>
<td width="18"></td>
<td width="4"></td>

just isn't of any value in building a structurally stable page. I'm sorry
to tell you that. It's best to avoid Layout mode altogether and just build
your tables from scratch. You can find some great tutorials about working
with tables at the DW FAQ link in my sig.

The font sizing issues are probably due to your mixture of CSS pixel sized
fonts (which are pretty stable cross-browser/platform) with HTML styles
(i.e., the font tag) which are sized differently cross-browser/platform.
Again, this will require some work on your part to fix....
