Hi,

Thanks for that. I have actually now found and solved the problem. I
went back and made changes one by one and checked after each change.
The odd effect I saw (and have now corrected) occurred when I changed
the Doctype from Transitional to Strict, in either 4.01 or XHTML 1.0.
Problem was a mismatch with the use of the 3 images used as backing
for the table row, Transitional forgave it but Strict did not.

Just shows it is easier to start from scratch than convert.

Thanks for you your trouble,

Andrew.

PS Late night dyslexia converted 1.5.0 to 1.0.5 :-)
