What is so strange about that? If you are using elements that are in HTML 4 but not in 3.2, they will be ignored in 3.2 but rendered in 4. That is intended behaviour. Did you validate your HTML in both cases? Why not write XHTML? > The real question though is, now that AOL signed another multi-year > agreement to use the IE engine in AOL <ACK cough - sputter> and laid off > more NS staff, how long will it be before NS goes completely open source? Never. Netscape is just as dead as standalone versions of IE. If you want a browser that continues to evolve, look at Firebird or Opera. If you want a communications suite that continues to evolve, look at Mozilla.
