IE8 incompatibility with my website

Hi
I'm not sure if I'm on the correct board for this, but I couldn't work out
which it should be. So here goes anyway ...

I run a website at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/roger.pashby/ and it works
perfectly under IE7 but with IE8 only the top banner appears, the other two
windows being unloadable. The program was created using MS Front Page 2003
and is hosted - obviously - by ntlworld, who are now run by Virgin Media.

Can anyone please tell me why it won't display?
Is there a patch that I'm missing?

I have to keep with IE7 in the interim but I'd like to move up to IE8.

Thanks in advance!

Works OK here in IE8. Must be yours.

BTW I wouldn't use Frontpage in the first place - it has a reputation for
producing not very good code...

Re: IE8 incompatibility with my website

OK - thanks everyone, for all of your help.

I really can't figure this as I have only just had my machine re-loaded so
it should work fine.

PA Bear - I'm afraid that your post with associated error report means
absolutely NOTHING to me; I'm not THAT computerate!

Never mind.
