Website Problems
Hey SG, do you realise that your website does not show properly in Netscape? The links work but there are some funny characters in front of the links and nothing shows in the middle where the main text should be. I still have IE installed so I can still view it but I just thought I should point it out.
I know what you're thinking and if I told you, you'd think I was talking in centimetres.

Actually, if you use netscape and tell it (via right clicking) to open one of the links in a new window it will appear in the new window as if you had activated the link in IE. Dunno what that means, but I have doubts that it's a problem on Sir_General's side, I tend to blame Netscape for its faults.

Re: Website Problems
OK, I decided to throw the website into the HTML Validator to check for errors. The result.
A few errors:
In the menu, you use non-breaking spaces ( ). There must be a semicolon immediately after the last of these in every line, otherwise it will be read incorrectly, as a special character with the code  - .
A lot of the attributes inside the HTML tags need to have quotes around their values. A few examples (errors in bold):
Line 65 (of source code): <iframe BORDER=0 FRAMEBORDER=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 SRC="./Content.asp" NAME="fraContent" HEIGHT=100% WIDTH=100% SCROLLING=NO>
Line 12: <body BACKGROUND="./Images/Background.gif" BGCOLOR=#000000 TEXT=#AAAAAA LINK=#AAAAAA ALINK=#AAAAAA VLINK=#AAAAAA>
Also, you haven't specified the DOCTYPE attribute or the character encoding used. This should be done as well.
