Can you help me fix this anyone?!

I realy would not put an IMG tag into the head, you could try lower case some servers are based on Unix and so are case sensitive.

any other help you give us a msg.

Hokay...

I concur, tags in the are a bad idea.

Also, using spaces and punctuation in filenames (e.g. "still to edit, Home.GIF") is extremely messy, and should be avoided. If you can fit it sensibly into an old DOS 8.3 format, that's what you should try to do...

I notice you're using an embedded to define scrollbars etc., yet you still seem to have a heap of tags. You might consider using a few named text styles in the body of the document too - it's far neater.

Finally, the page title works fine - what I suspect has happened is that Google spidered it before you had put the attribute on - remember, you're looking at a snapshot of the page which could be up to a month old. Next time the spider calls, it'll pick up your .

You picked up alot more than I did, bu then again It was late I think
