yeah, I get those errors in Netscape 4.72 and nothing comes up except the background color - in IE5.5, everything seems ok - don't get Mad , but there's a typo in "ComMunities" - ok, I guess there's nothing to get mad about - I thought this was a Flash movie that you'd hafta do over, but instead it's some very good dhtml - nice job, and you can add that "M" very easily Smiling - also a typo in "suBscriptions" - when I exited, your alert said I had viewed "0 of 6 available pages" - should that have been incremented to "1"? - I gotta say I have been PASSIONATELY pro-Palestinian and anti-"illegal settler" all my life - I view what has happened to the Arabs as similar to the fate suffered by the native population where I reside in North America - an unspeakable crime against humanity - on the other hand, there's no denying what happened in Europe in the 30's and 40's - I have relatives who never made it back from their "cross-channel excursion" to remind me of that - what really impressed me about your site was the effort you made to offer at least some balance in the Morris article I read - oops, got an "object expected" error that time - in "Subscriptions," a typo in "recEIving" - "newsstand" is typically one word, although it is kinda funny-lookin' - typo in "two year suBscribers" - a comma after "community"? - an extra t in "addition" - comma in front of "there is"? - you left out the period in the 30% line - actually, I'd leave out the periods on all six of these lines - even though they're sentences, they're short and "bulletted" - on the order form ( I read your qualifier), a missing space in the first "state(for US addresses)" - do you mean "MasterCard"? - I'd try to consolidate that expiration date info - typo in "street adDress" - in "Delivery Details," do you want to capitalize "voices"? - a typo in two of your alerts here on zip code verification, "mistAke" - anyway, don't think I'm pickin' on ya - I annoyingly copyedit everything I read - I guess I 'd also like to challenge you to reach out even more for peace - could you bring in reasonable pro-Palestinian voices and contribute even further to putting this intractable nightmare behind us? Cool

ok, now I've seen it in IE also:

-maybe you should use some graphics or a logo
-i think you should get rid of that JS-prompt (type your name here) and those alerts (you've been here xxx times etc.)

But, overall:

Good job.

I suppose I shouldn't have made those political comments in a earlier post in this thread and I appreciate the tolerance of the forum administration / moderators / membership in not scolding me - so I won't look like a totally arrogant and ignorant American, I just think it's a terrible tragedy when people can't live where they feel their home is and suffer from being uprooted and living in a very difficult political environment - I know that what happened to the Native American population doesn't compare to the problems in your region - I'll try to learn my lesson about spouting political views around here that require elaboration - sorry
