Hi I have a Powerbook 3400c/250 using MacOS 8.1 quite happily. I have also been using Netscape Communicator 4.78 quite happily until recently when I started encountering Java or Javascript problems on some sites, including those I had quite happily accessed previously. [I enabled all images, Java and Javascript in preferences so it is not that.]
For example, on <http://www.prov.vic.gov.au/archivesvictoria/t1tbmain.asp> I could not see the left hand frame where one can log in to do research. I get the message about "Javscript error" in the scroll box at bottom. Another site I had previously accessed for years is a Java-operated chat site on the Virtual University: <www.vu.org/chatcafe/chatnow> The message there is "Applet cr cannot load". So I reluctantly upgraded to Netscape Communicator 4.79. I had to go to the ftp site to download Smartupdate as I encountered the same Javascript error on their Smartupdate website. I can usually find my way around most browser difficulties but this one problem persists. Is there some added Java software I need? or Javascript software? Or both? Has anyone any ideas, please?
