Ok, *why* are your pages best viewed under IE4+ and Netscape 4+, and how
bad do they look in Netscape 3.04?  Do you tell your users?  Does FP2K
tell you?  And is it really necessary to have such varying displays at
different workstations?

It's sounds like FrontPage is managing your expectations at least as well
as your web site.
