Because still see a significant enough amount of traffic with NS4 to justify making our sites at least functional with the browser, even if they're not as attractive overall as with a newer one. Not the case for older versions. Hell, we just had one of our clients switch from NS4 to IE6 across their entire corporate network this year. Yes, they were using NS4 corporate-wide as recently as 4 months ago.

So you render your HTML with everything, and then apply security considerations with Javascript? Not that it's not viable, but seems kind of silly. Why build all that machinery twice, since you have to have it on the CF side regardless? I suppose it doesn't really matter at all, each will do it his own way. cheers, barneyb On 7/31/05, Claude Schneegans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>If you can show me how to take a bunch of markup and convert it into a > > >>JS menu that'll work on NS4+, IE4+, Gecko and Safari without it being > >>messy, I'll be very impressed.
