Mac browser does not load my website
Please could someone who is using a Mac (and any mainstream Mac browser-Internet Explorer/ Safari, etc.), go to my site & tell me whether they can load it : www.pbatchelor-portraits.co.uk .
I have recently (and for the first time!) tried to access the site on a Mac (I think the browser was IE).
Only the background loaded (all other graphics & text are in layers.)

I have a timeline (layers) running on the homepage, which I feel could be the reason.
The timeline starts running normally after the main graphic loads.

There is no timeline on this alternative homepage: www.pbatchelor-portraits.co.uk\indexNotTL.html
Does this load? ( on Macs). If it does, it would appear that the Timeline is the problem.
If not, it has to be the layers...or just Mac-unfriendly coding.
I used Namo Web Editor.

The site works perfectly on PCs using IE and Opera.
Netscape-based browsers don't run the timeline, nor roll-over buttons. I can live with that, but not if the site doesn't load at all.

Very many thanks to any kind Mac user who will oblige,

from a humble PC user.

Hi pcb:

Safari 1.0.2 loads it fine, portrait with three links on main page. Other pages load fine. Nice site.

Many thanks for your testing my site, Yankee Rose..you have made my day. I was fearing that all Mac browsers won't load my site. (Mac Internet Explorer doesn't seem to-as verified by others.

I suppose though that most users on Mac (as with the PC) will be using IE!!

Thanks for the appreciation

Joe2 cool,

Thanks for the link..I did search a couple of Mac forums ( I am so busy- in such a hurry to finish my new site, I didn't spend too much time on it, must say ).
