For some reason your post is in HTML, and HTML is generally frowned upon. As for
inline images, theese are also made in HTML, and if everyone stopped and went
for text we wouldn't have problems :-)

I use 'Scape, the same version at work and at home.  It works 100% here at home,
but It will not download messages with inline images at work.  It's probably the
firewall...

It is, as they say in Russia "No Biggyeh" I can view at home... That's why it's
a "humble" request.

Well, actually it is usually the other way around. MSIE is the one not
following specs and causing problems. Especially in the context of this thread,
Outlook/Exchange can cause major problems when sending to Netscape, not because
of anything on the Netscape end but because of Netscape following the Internet
specs & RFC's and MS sending piles of '****' out. As a developer, having to put
in extra hours to help MIS figure out what's happening to our mail and why
parts are not showing up is the last thing I want. Sigh.

For HTML in mail, Netscape has a tendency just to put out "bad style" HTML,
whereas Outlook/Outlook Express actually puts out broken/illegal HTML But that
should be a moot point, as people should post in plain text and attatch images.
(BTW Ian, for Outlook I believe that you need to avoid pasting the images if
you want them not to be inlined. Look for an actual 'attatch' command/menu
item.)


(BTW, Better info on web page building issues can be had from
http://www.htmlhelp.com/ Reading there can help save you headaches in your
work)

I fully agree with you on the HTML email problems of both browsers, neither
seem to have got it quite right, however at least IE5/Outlook now allows to
to hand edit the HTML source of your HTML email.

but on the whole, I only send HTML email to ppl who i know use the same
software as i do, and HTML email to NG's is a waste of bytes (for
everybody!).

Thanks for the link, it will come in usefull, I do my best to stick to HTML
3.2 when writing web pages, but even then, especially when using complex
nested tables, or *choke* frames, MSIE translates my code litrally, netscape
seems to add a few extra pixels here and there, which can be a real pain to
fix.

for example a page I am working on now is ~2kb larger than it should be just
for fix the anomalies NC introduces, and make the pages 100% identical on
both browsers, and on a site which my go up to 200+ pages, that little bit
extra soon mounts up.

It might well be that MSIE translates quickly written/sloppy code better
then NC which sticks ridigly to the standards, but when it means, extra work
for the developer (me) and extra time downloading (you) i know which i
prefere!

However, unlike some webmasters, at least i take the time to ensure that it
works best on both, istead on inisting that the user goes and gets 'the
other browser'!
