Incorrect table tags (not closed i.e.) cause Netscape to display an empty page.Second, you seem to love the & Sign right after the question mark of URL's.This for example is wrong syntax: > ..SEA_list2.tpl?[FORMVARIABLES]&[NAME]=[VALUE][/FORMVARIABLES]..Try to move the & after [VALUE]: ..SEA_list2.tpl?[FORMVARIABLES][NAME]=[VALUE]&[/FORMVARIABLES]x=x.. The last x=x is just to avoid a trailing & and might not be necessary. And yes, you have more of these ?& combinations in your code.hope it helps,Peter ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
