Having Some Browser Compatibility problems

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I am doing fine in developing a HTML presentation using Visio as my
primary developement tool.
HOWEVER, I have found that the HTM page that is created in VISIO is NOT
workable in the Mozilla, Firefox, or even IE Macintosh.

There might be two culprits:

1) Javascript vs. JScript incompatibility (Which is a remainder of the
old Netscape/IE browser war).

2) Relative Pathing for URL file directory accessing (Which is my
biggest suspect).

What I been able to use in the Hyperlink wizard box is the following
setup:

a) Create HTM versions of pages I have created in VISIO or other HTML
developement tools.
b) Using the "INSERT/Hyperlink" or "CTRL" + "K" command, I get a dialog
box linking the particular object with the new linked document.
c) USE relative path check box and write the following in the
"ADDRESS" window:"/../..//DirectoryName/FileName.htm."
d) then when all my links are in, use the "Save as Webpage" option.
e) This allows me to move the whole directory to ANY media (cd rom,
memory stick, ect) and it would work...

EXCEPT only in INTERNET EXPLORER

When you use Firefox or Mozilla.... THE LINKS FAIL.

It has been suggested by couple of javascript sites to open up the
Filename.htm,
and in an editor like NOTEPAD, in the HTML code, to change the <head>
information from "jscript" to "javascript"
in the line:
<script src="NAME-FILE_files/frameset.js" type="text/jscript"
language="jscript"></script>
<script type="text/jscript" language="jscript" >

HOWEVER, it still has connecting problems when you click on your
hyperlinked items.

IS THERE a safe, cross platform pathing command syntax that will work
for my situation?

OR how do I change the URL Pathing in WHAT HTM file?

OR there are still snags in the JSCRIPT to JAVASCRIPT compiler?
