A club I belong to has a website that was created with Frontpage. The site works well for most visitors but a few say that the banner and the text loads but the buttons remain blank no matter how long they wait. Does anyone have an idea if there is a setting that they need to change? I have been told they are using new machines with XP Home on dial-up.

Or they dont use IE or they have disable pictures etc in their manner. If they use a pop blocker also that may be misconfigured.

If possible check with another os, and of course try yourself with different versions of os and browser from the internet.
If you provice the link i can test with w2k using IE 6 and Firebird (mozilla).

I just opened the site via a 1mb line.
it's not exactly the fastest site opening.
even after opening, i have the scroll (no clicking) on the colum on the left side to see the text (and sometimes the text (home,links etc) disappear and reappear)

so speed is one factor.
keep in mind also that are still people using dialup connections and build the site accordingly. I will let you know when I arrive home , thursday or so, so i use my dialup account.

right now using w2k and IE 6.

ok,
it's a browser thing.
I just openened it with mozilla firebird.
indeed the column at the left hand site stays grey, no matter what i do.

There is message loading java applet failed.
