the error is on line 27, character 1, it's a syntax error.....but i don't know what all this means.

also.....i used a mouseover effect of the buttons but the gifs don't seem to preload.

if i don't sound like i know what i'm talking about.....it's because i'm new to this stuff. thanks in advance for the help.

rocky.

I don't know a whole lot either, but I had a look through it and I have a question...

((Subsitute ^'s with code brackets))

^SCRIPT language="JavaScript"^
function FT_PreloadImages()
{
if (document.images) {
if (typeof(document.FT) == 'undefined') {
document.FT = new Object();
}
document.FT.loaded_images = new Array();
var argc = FT_PreloadImages.arguments.length;
for (i=0; i document.FT.loaded_images[i] = new Image();
document.FT.loaded_images[i].src = FT_PreloadImages.arguments[i];
}
}
}
function msover(img,ref,desc) { if (document.images) { document.images[img].src = ref; window.status = desc; } return true; }
function msout(img,ref) { if (document.images) { document.images[img].src = ref; window.status = ""; } return true; }
//--^
^/SCRIPT^

I think the problem is with the second last line shown here. You don't have the start of that line anywhere in the above (( //--^ )) The start of that line should be (( ^!-- )) place it just below the first line shown here. I hope that helps.

i'm using IE 6 also. if you look in the bottom left-hand corner of the browser, it says "Done, but with errors on the page." if you click that it tells you where the errors are. it's ok though...i figured out the problem. thanks anyway.
