Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone here can help me with this. When setting up a webpage in my IE6, my father who has IE5.5 cannot open the JPEG files on the page (he's 100 miles away).

That tells me I need to make more than one page (I think).
Is there a way to code the existing page to be recognized by different browsers? Or do you have to create the same page only with slightly different code?

Here is a link to the un-encrypted page so the code can be viewed. Does someone here have IE5.5 that can test this page?

TEST LINK (http://home.earthlink.net/~rtrstudio/Starrpics/encrypt.htm)

It seems that the "Ray's Studio 2003" link opens fine for him (IE5.5) but all the jpg links on the left and right give him an error message.

Thank you for any and all insights.

The jpeg files are opened using javascript. He may have javascript disabled, or 5.5 may use slightly different code. In any case, an iframe is probably a better solution:
