Hi,
I currently run site, which receives visits from people who use both IE and Netscape.
The pages that I have within my site have the following format: http://www.mydomain.com/page
Notice that I do not add the .html extension to my pages.
Users who are using Netscape, have told me that when they try access these pages, the only thing that they see is my HTML code.
I have tried these pages with IE, and they work fine.
I dont want to add the .html extension to my pages, because I dont think that it looks as professional. I've noticed that other big sites like http://www.go.com, do not add .html extensions to some of their pages (and Im sure that these pages work fine with Netscape browsers).
So is there something that I should be adding to my pages, which allow Netscape browsers to properly view pages without the .html extension?
Should I add:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
--OR--
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
I know that there are MANY different variations of the tags above. Which variation would be the correct one to use on my pages, (if this is what I need to add)?????
Oh yeah, and I have added the <HTML></HTML> tags at the beginning and end of my code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
-Karl
