Site jumps around

Hi,

I have finished a site that looks pretty good but some people have told me of something i hadnt noticed.

Because i was running my site locally on my computer, each page loaded instantly. Then i uploaded it to the net and because i have broadband the pages loaded pretty fast also.

Some people with dialup told me my site jumps around and gets all distorted before everything loads completely. It looks fine once it has been loaded but the loading looks jumpy.

Is there a way around this? Is it possible for me to PM my site to someone so they can take a look at it?

Thanks :)

I think it might have something to do with my excessive use of negative positioning instead of using float for my divs.

But i cant be too sure.

A typical cause is the absence of dimensions in <img> tags. If you only have one or two images on a page then omitting the width and height is ok but if you have many images then the symptoms you've described may appear.
