Small squares in Netscape

Please take a look at

http://demo34.xait.no 

in Netscape 4.x. Do you see the small squares around every input-field?

I have never experienced this problem before. Any solution or any idea of what could cause this problem?

Yeah, I know that it is a big file and that it could be a lot of things causing the problem. That's why I asked the question here:-) I have never seen this before, and I'm wondering if somebody have seen it before and know what typicall could cause it.

<img src="image_dot.html?bgColor=D5E4EB&height=25&width=1" border="0"> is not the problem. This is a html-file acting as an image. It works as it should in both IE, Opera and NN. When I need some lines I could refer to this file and get the line in exactly the color I want.....instead of using Photoshop to create a lot of image-dots. (eg: http://demo34.xait.no/image_dot.html?bgColor=ff0000&width=100&height=500 )

ps! I use a standard texteditor(PHPed) and no WYSIWYG-editor like GoLive. I haven't payed much attention to how the code look like when I choose "view source". It's created using PHP and the php-file look ok. The use of table-tags was some thing I used for debugging in the left column now.

Well, you must have used SOMETHING because this
DESIGNTIMEURL=";;oppslag.html?id=6" ;
isn't something that most hand coders would put in -- but I've seen it from WYSIWY(N)G editors. InterDev perhaps?

And your code is the problem -- you can't use any table construction you want in Netscape 4 and expect it to work right. Cleaning up your code would be good for ANY browser -- they've got to work twice as hard (and take twice as long) to parse the extraneous junk and decide to ignore it.
Where's this?

Is it where you said?

Sorry! You're right about some of the crappy code. I have implemented a wysiwyg-editor online so that Novice users could write formatted text for web.

But I don't think that's the problem.


users/0072/images/200210/image1310.gif should where it says it is(demo34.xait.no/users/0072/images/200210/image1310.gif).

I guess I have to try to figure the problem out my self, but I leave the question open a little bit longer in case someone has seen this before.

Anyway: I appreciate any response!

No more commented were added to this question, so I have to try to find a solution my self.

I give the points to webwoman since you came with the first comment. I usually allways grade answers with an A, but since no comment helped me here, I hope you forgive me for just giving you a B.

Batalf
No problem, I appreciate the generousity, especially since it wasn't really an answer for you.

Have you figured out what is causing it?
