I have just realised this gif is nt showing up for me with IE in this page It shows up fine in Ffox and seems an innocent enough .gif - anyone can tell me why? I have thumbnailed it below also (yeah, I know it is passé etc) and also added the relevant HTML code snippet to expedite an explanation....

Code:

Looks like you forgot to close the opening <a> tag. :)
It should be:

Code:
<p>
<a href="http://www.zen95211.zen.co.uk/holding.html">
<img src="http://www.zen95211.zen.co.uk/gif/working.gif"></a>
</p>

P.S. Tags and attributes should be in lowercase, and you should consider adding an "alt" attribute to your images.
 
/me feels dumb - thanks man - would have repped you but apparently need to spread the love first....

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
