I suggest that you try downloading Mozilla. Mozilla is a browser suite
(that still supports MS Windows 95, unlike IE). The suite includes a web
browser, email client, and HTML editor.

I hope this was helpful.

There is no IE 4.4, but you likely have a build of IE4.x, which is not going to be able to run all the scripts and so forth.  With Win95, you can and should use IE5.5 SP2, but it is no longer available from Microsoft.  You can still download it from here, but it is a very large file (~84MB):
http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/5.5_SP2

Internet Explorer 5.5 service pack 2 is The latest Internet Explorer
for Windows 95.

The full install is of Internet Explorer 5.5 with service pack 2 is on
CD for $3.00 at http://www.on-disk.com/ie55sp2.html
It's the full 85MB version with 128 bit encryption, Outlook Express,
java, etc

Microsoft doesn't have it for download anymore but evolt.org does,
although it wouldn't install for me and some others I've seen post in
these groups.

This is prolly telling you something you need to know.

If this is an Internet web site, it has to work gracefully no matter
the computer platform used by the visitor.  So it's not a matter of
"making your Win95 PC work like XP", but rather making the site work
equally well on both pl;atforms.

You likely have two different issues here:
 - fonts
 - HTML version issues

On the first; you cannot assume every visitor has teh same fonts your
development PC has.  Unlike writing portable documents for general use
within Windows, you can't even assume Arial, Times New Roman or
Courier New (as Apple users have different base fonts, etc.).

HTML allows you to specify multiple fonts separated by commas, so that
if one isn't found, the next is tried.  Getting Front Page to accept
this is a pain, but Noetscape 7.xx's Composer handles with aplomb; it
even offers "Arial, Helvetica" as a default!  That combo is good if
you want blob-less fonts on both Windows and MacOS.

If you have to have special fonts, then you have to either embed them
in the page (which not all visitors will accept) or, if the font is
sparsely used, replace with .gif of that content (good for headers).

You should get OFF IE 4.xx asap, because it's likely to be a menace
where MIME-spoofing is concerned.  See...

http://users.iafrica.com/c/cq/cquirke/mimehole.htm

You can't install IE 6.xx on Win95, so you should get IE 5.5 SP2.
That version's safe for MIME-spoofing, and will include more modern
HTML functionality and standards support.

Also, check you pages in other browsers.  Netscape 4.8 supports
Cascading Style Sheets and will run fairly well on Win95; it's the
original Netscape from before the AOL takeover.

Netscape 7.xx will be slower on Win95.  This is the current Netscape
as developed post-AOL, and is based of different code.

If you stayed on IE 4.xx, your JavaScript would also be limited to
earlier version standards.  Staying with old version standards could
be good for backward compatibility (assuming you *have* to use
scripting at all) but if others have added JavaScript from newer
versions, this may not run properly in your IE 4.xx system.

If only one version of Windows will run your web page, then it isn't
an Internet site anymore - just a tribal Windows extension   :-)
