    Exclamation Internet Explorer problem

    My site works perfectly in Firefox, but it completely CRASHES on one page in Explorer.

    This page contains pop up layers (on mouse-over) to .swf videos.

    Can I put a link to my site here so someone can help me?

    www.eden-productions.co.za on the wedding tab.

    I would really appreciate some help

    Thanks a mill.

    I just accessed your referenced website and all seems to function just fine. I'm running Internet Explorer 8, on Windows XP. What version of IE are you using?

    It works here [IE8] after leaving the site and returning. First time it was slow and the 'wedding' page was barely loading. Too big?

    Hi LindyJo,

    Internet Explorer 6.1 is about 8 years old and has known issues with some graphic formats and multimedia content.

    Like Curtis I am using IE8 and can access the Wedding tab however the size of the video files causes long delays (my connection is only 768K).

    If your target audience have very fast internet connections and newer browsers there should be no problems.

    Thank you again guys for your speedy help for a damsel in distress

    I havent optimized the graphics and .swf files completely.. will get there!

    Ive been using Firefox for so long.. forgotten to upgrade explorer.. but I wish it worked for everyone...

    Xara Web Designer is awesome in its ability to easily position objects etc etc.. I have been using Dreamweaver and Fireworks for years and I am about to change.. almost.. not quite..

    Finding it a bit difficult to design "light" pages like I can with Dreamweaver and css..

    On a learning curve.. I designed that site in a few hours!! would have taken me a few days in the Adobe monsters..

    If anyone has any other ideas or crits I would appreciate hearing from you.

    I'll pay you back when Im a Xara guru

    I did note that your three buttons on the contact page still point to the default xara.com link.
