Please don't top post, it is easier to follow the thread if you insert your reply at the appropriate point. I think Fred wants to see the html of the page, you can see this using View, Page Source (or similar) in the browser. You can check that the html is valid (a good thing to check first when strange things happen) by copying the complete html from the View Source window and pasting it into the w3c html validator web site.
