I have a page with both external links and targets inside a large table. In the external pages that are linked to, there is a link back to a target anchor in the referencing page (still following?). NSN 3.01 W95/NT is unable to find the target anchor when it comes back to the page - instead taking the viewer to the end of the page. A reload of the page is necessary before NSN again recognizes the target anchor names. Regarding the tables: MSIE 3.02 does not display a FONT color override inside an anchor. But beware when you use stylesheets! If you declare a color for either BODY or P, that color overrides all of the LINK colors and you MUST declare the anchor pseudo-classes (A:link, etc.) if you want links to appear in another color.
