Cant view in Netscape when designed with FP2000

Using FP 2000. I have two tables sitting horizontally next to each other.
I have inserted a horizontal line into the left table and it is orange....I
have inserted a horizontal line into the right table and it is blue. When I
preview the page I see a line that changes colors from orange to
blue...exactly what I want. When I view the page with IE 6 the page
displays exactly as I designed...However, when I view the page with Netscape
7.0 I don't see the lines at all, only little tick marks where the line
begins....

Anyone know why or how to fix???
 
URL. Make sure you have applied the color to the cell background, not table.

The horizontal line is actually inserted to the cell but doesn't take up the
whole width of the cell or table. If I apply the color to the cell
background then the whole cell takes on the color, I only want the line to
have the color...I have set the Horizontal line properties color and it
shows up in IE just not Netscape. Could this be some compatibility issue
with this feature in FP...if so is there a better way to insert a horzontal
line and give it color just coding it myself???

When
 
the question would be easiest to answer if you had a url to show what you're
trying to do. you can define an horizontal line with .css or make a little
picture and display that in place of the horizontal line.
I have an obnoxious horizontal line that I made all over this page ;-)

Are you talking about the Insert | Horizontal Line, if so then NS browsers
do not support color being applied.

Create a 6 x 6 pixels gif image in the solid color you want, then import and
insert on your page, then resize as required.

Yep Thomas, you are right that is exactly what I am trying to do....good ol
Netscape can't make it easy...

Can you recommend a good tool to develop a gif?
