  Layer only works in Netscape 4, and I believe it has been abandoned in 
Netscape 6, to make Netscape more standards compatible. It certainly 
won't work in IE5.5, as it's a "proprietary" tag introduced by Netscape. 
The Mozilla group threw out a lot of the NN4 non-standard stuff, to stop 
people from using it I believe.

    My Problem is not to find an alternative to <layer> tag but to find 
out the reason behind why the layer tag is not working. Please if 
anybody can explain me about the reason behind this problem.

      don't use <layer>, use <div> try this:

      <div id=3D"firstlayer" style=3D"position:absolute; top:30; 
left:25;">
       <img src=3D"">
      </div>
      etc.

      I'm using a layer tag to make two layers but it is not giving me 
the desired output. my code is

      <layer top=3D30 left=3D25>
          <img  src=3D"abc.jpg" height=3D100 width=3D225></img>
      </layer>
      <layer top=3D55 left=3D45>
          <img src=3D"cde.jpg"></img>
      </layer>

      Now my problem is that the output of this is code is not displayed 
as it should that the second image should overlap the first image means 
it should come on top of the image in first layer. I have copied this 
code from HTML book but it is not working the output it gives me is that 
after Ist image is displayed the second image is displayed adjacent to 
the first image irrespective of the top and left attributes defined by 
me in layer tag.
      Your valuable comments will be highly appreciated. I have tried 
this in both IE 5.5 and Netscape 6.
