Solve a mystery~~~!
I'm very confused. I've been working on my website (hosted by freewebs) and it seems that all of my links work except for my little mp3 rotation site.

It "loads" on moth Firefox and Mozilla, but this is what I get with firefox:]

and this is what I get from IE:

My friend who uses only IE says that the page doesn't work on her computer. I think it's the coding (because all my other pages work), so can you see anything that would mess it up on IE?

I had the same problem, last time I guess my background image wasn't "explorer" ready. My teacher transferred it into Imageready and it worked after that. I don't know if that will help.

I uploaded my image to ImageShack instead, but it still doesn't show up at all. Any other suggestions?

maybe its the code your using for your images. i'm on a school computer right now so I cant really see whats going on, but what I usually use for my background in ie is somthing like

<background-image=url("insert url here")>

I used that code and not only does the page not show on IE still, the background image doesn't work on Firefox either.
