You are opening a can of worms here I believe, but Netscape has no problem with Javascript. Especially since Netscape invented Javascript, I imagine they can do whatever they want with it. It's web site authors that write code for proprietary DOM's (read: IE) that are the reason some sites do not work.
I view Netscape 6 compatibility as forwards compatibility, as do many others. We are finally moving towards standards and Netscape 6.x is on the forefront of the standards movement. I'd also just like to mention that Netscape 6.0 or 6.2 are really not representative of what Netscape 6.x will be by April. Whatever the next version will be numbered, it's going to knock the socks off of a lot of people... jon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yager, Brian T Contractor/NCCIM" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 10:10 AM Subject: RE: SOT: Is the Netscape browser still a consideration? > I would like to chime in on this topic...I have several sites that I have to > maintain (I do government work) that I did not write.
