I had my ISP move one ot the sites I'm having problems
with to a different sever running an older version of
FrontPage extensions and the problem dissappeared.
They are now saying this is a Microsoft problem.
To summarize:
I have identical test webs on different servers using
different versions of FP Server extension that display
the navigation bar differently on my & other users IE 6
browsers. The problem is that the images used for the
navigation continuely redisplay as if the are being
downloaded everytime instead of being displayed from the
cache.
My gut tells me this is an IE thing but changing severs
points to FP extensions.
I am totally at a loss as to what is going on. Is this an
IE thing, a FP extensions thing, a web thing?
