Browser-check probs

[e-myther]

Hi guys



My friend has asked me to do a browser check on his website in IE & NN.


I checked a few of his pages with an old version of Dreamweaver (checking IE5 & NN4).


It said that several tags are not supported by either.


Can anyone tell me whether the following bits are:

a) Applicable to later versions of IE & NN
b) Applicable to other browsers
or
c) Added unnecessarily by a WYSIWYG editor



<table cool width="133" height="976" usegridx usegridy showgridx showgridy gridx="16" gridy="16" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<spacer type="block" width="1" height="975">

<td width="132" height="975" align="left" xpos="0" content valign="top" csheight="975">



Also:

I checked a few of his pages off-line, on an old hard drive with NN4.6.
The page (which seems fine in IE) showed virtually a blank screen.

The page works correctly if I remove line 21: <table width="580" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0">
I've no idea why this should cause a problem; it's just the opening tag of the second table!

If you have an early version of NN, please check http://www.dundean.com/sched.html
& let me know if you see the contents of the tables.



Thanks guys

<spacer type="block" width="1" height="975">

Old Netscapes (eg 4.76)
Ignored by other browsers and new Netscape

As the name implies, a spacer - similar to using a transparent image...

In its time, a useful tag for alignment purposes.

(No experience with the other queries.)

if you see the contents of the tables
Just the top and side images are visible NN 4.76.

Thanks Paulette

That's what I was getting offline (Just the top and side images ).




Anyone know about the other things ?



Cheers
