    If you go to:

    http://www.geocities.com/poppage1/faves.html

    in IE, the sentences are justified properly. However, in Firefox 1.0, they are all jagged. At first, I freaked out thinking I had to modify the page, but later on, found out that it was Firefox that was displaying it this way. The same page is okay in IE.

    How can I fix this? Thanks for your help.

    Harry,

    I am also using Firefox and tried the page you listed. Everything looks good to me. All words are justified to the left side of the page. I also tried the page in Netscape 7 and IE. All browsers show the page the same. Not sure why yours is different.

    Well, that is strange! I just downloaded Firefox 1.0 again and reinstalled it. No luck. Only the song titles are jagged. The top portion is not. But, it looks alright in IE!

    This is how it looks.

    If I had problems, I would have said that it was a problem with the way the web page was designed, which is not uncommon. I tried NS7.2, Mozilla1.7.5, Firefox1.0, and IE6, at the same time (I have cable). There is no difference.
    But, don't waste tme reinstalling. It will not do any good.
    But all the links to the songs, which I tried, are dead.

    Hi Westside,

    Too late...I had already reinstalled. No big deal. It took me less than a minute.

    Hehehe...that is because none of them are _supposed to be_ playable links. They are simply a list of songs, that's all. :D If you want to hear some of them, then you need to go to: http://www.geocities.com/rare-song-site or http://harry.cckerala.com

    I used what is a link to Real Audio sites, i.e http://www.geocities.com/rare-song-site/
    That is the top link which you gave.
    The second link is an entirely different story. I am listening to some music, now.
    Thanks for the link, but can't help you with you jagged song titles.

    It renders fine for me. I'm checking the page on Firefox 1.0 on Mac OS X, though, and the Windows version could be different.
