Tech help.

New website design - mostly working, but needs a few things sorted.

1) Can people running versions of IE earlier than 6 have a look at http://www.tinyjo.net/journal/ and tell me whether they can see the journal entries on the left hand side.

2) How do I run a cgi script within an asp page? The exec statements in the gallery just sit there without doing anything :(

3) How can I pass a variable from the location bar ( http://www.tinyjo.net/journal/friends/?filter=4 ) to the cgi script in the page?

4) Logo. I need some kind of banner to go across the top of the pages, saying tinyjo.net and then a strap line. But I can't decide on a strap line, or a font so I've decided to be lazy...

[Poll #55484]

Also, the archives are broken for the moment because it was late and I forgot to upload 2 pages - soz!

I'm only sure that it works in Mozilla 1 (though it seems to be working OK in IE6 this morning) so can people running other browsers take a gander for me? Ta.

I see the same as jinty (and others) in IE6 WinXP. Netscape 4.79 just shows the text, no boxes. It's quite readable. If I'd seen your message at work, I could have tried it on my PC there, where I've been collecting browsers for years.

Yeah - I think the best you can hope for with an old browser like NS4 is that it doesn't actually crash while viewing and will actually display all the relevant parts. I'm surprised by the winxp/ie6 though as that's what I'm using at work and it seems to work for me... What's your screen resolution?
