RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I have basic Javascript in my browser that works completely fine in Netscape 4.7. Now Netscape 6 comes out and it doesn't work, what is up with that. I think there are a couple of different issues here. Firstly, the main reason JS written for NN4.7 won't work in N6 is that NN4.7 is *hideously* non-standards-compliant. In fact IE 5.x is fairly non-compliant as well, though not nearly as badly. Whereas N6 does actually try to implement the W3C Document Object Model. It was always going to be the case that when W3C DOM-compliant browsers came out - and this is the first real attempt at that - we would all have to do a lot of re-coding. However, the second issue is that Netscape have completely forked it up and this is a very poor piece of software. I first hit this issue back in August when some bright spark at a client of mine told his boss just as they were about to launch the site, "Hey! Panic! The DHTML doesn't work on Netscape 6! That consultant must have been writing non-standard code!" Even after a bit of "re-education", my relationship with that client is not back to what it was before, and I don't thank Netscape for that.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I disagree with this so much! I am confident that my skills to do advanced programming and integration of the newest technologies can make a web site much more powerful than any "web tool for dummies." I don't base my "job security" on the fact that I know a list of annoying little problems that I can avoid quicker than a 13 year old! It would be a pleasure if web browsers were consistent enough that everything worked reliably the first time. Then let the 13 year olds take all the little mom-and-pop web sites that only need HTML and the very basic 'shopping cart'. That level of design SHOULDNT NEED rocket scientists!

I disagree with this mentality completely. All browsers should be standards compliant so that us developers can spend more time doing the things we are really paid to do: develop kick-ass web-based APPLICATIONS. Spending hours tweaking this and that and making compromises to achieve some semblance of cross-browser display compatibility is NOT why I am in this business.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I just cannot stand Nutscrape. Once upon a time, I rooted for them as the underdog to M$. But the browser was outpaced by M$, and the browser war was won. Over. End of story. Shortly thereafter, another soon-to-be monopoly (AOL) bought Nutscrape, and its destiny was charted to certain suckiness. Netscape was just another advertising platform for AOHELL (like ICQ). That is when I decided to seriously consider abandoning worry of cross-browser compatibility. I agree with the other post that mentioned that ALL browsers should be W3C compliant. AOL should spend less time squeezing ads into Netcenter and more time fixing their browser. It surprises me that Sun would not come to the rescue of AOHELL and help them with their JavaScript implementation. Boardwatch Magazine had a great new tagline for AOL: "You're so easy to use, no wonder we are number one" my 2 cents. :) John McKown, VP Business Services Delaware.Net, Inc. 30 Old Rudnick Lane, Suite 200 Dover, DE 19901 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: 302-736-5515 fax: 302-736-5945 icq: 1495432 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 10:34 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Netscape 6 out UGH - Original Message - From: "Scott, Andrew" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "CF-Talk" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2000 10:42 PM Subject: RE: Netscape 6 out UGH Correct me if I am wrong, but mozilla being the very first offical browser.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
Hi, Our observations are similar to Nicks. All of the issue we had with Netscape 6 ended up being our not adhering 100% to the standards. Both Netscape 4.X and IE 5 let much not-compliant code pass. To echo others from the list, the compliance CSS and DOM plus bug fixes for things in 4.X which drove us nuts, is a definate plus not matter what you think of the company and product. But all of this is rather moot since it will be in the hands of millions of surfers. You will need to support it whether you like it or not. My recommendation is bite the bullet, make the code comply with the standards and you will be none the worse for wear - you are going to have to do it sometime. Lanny Udey Associate Dean Learning and Information Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wednesday, November 15, 2000 I have basic Javascript in my browser that works completely fine in Netscape 4.7. Now Netscape 6 comes out and it doesn't work, what is up with that. I think there are a couple of different issues here. Firstly, the main reason JS written for NN4.7 won't work in N6 is that NN4.7 is *hideously* non-standards-compliant. In fact IE 5.x is fairly non-compliant as well, though not nearly as badly. Whereas N6 does actually try to implement the W3C Document Object Model. It was always going to be the case that when W3C DOM-compliant browsers came out - and this is the first real attempt at that - we would all have to do a lot of re-coding. However, the second issue is that Netscape have completely forked it up and this is a very poor piece of software. I first hit this issue back in August when some bright spark at a client of mine told his boss just as they were about to launch the site, "Hey! Panic! The DHTML doesn't work on Netscape 6! That consultant must have been writing non-standard code!" Even after a bit of "re-education", my relationship with that client is not back to what it was before, and I don't thank Netscape for that.

I installed it on 3 different PCs. I can't get it to work at all on one, it just GPFs and dies. I've tried reinstalling, deleting all the files and registry settings, reinstalling again, etc, etc. Still no go. The second PC wouldn't work the first time I installed it, similar problem, no GPFs, but it would hang and would never load. A second reinstall fixed the problem. Finally the third PC I installed it to, it work the first time.

Netscape 6 is crap, Go get a nightly build of Mozilla.. NO ONE is going to use or support Netscape 6 until they get it working right, they have not. It is a huge bloated marketing tool. Use Mozilla, its like the directors cut of netscape minus all the stupid BS like AIM and the AOL Icons on your desktop. I cant believe honestly that they are shipping this product in its current state of affairs... I cant see any way we are going to support NS 6 until they get it working at least up to par with NS 4.7. I have a huge problem with AOL and them releasing it. They have the XUL application language and they intend for it to be a programming platform! For once they have went furhter than microsoft and have taken a simple thing like a web browswer to new heights of bloat and un-needed features, Grats AOL!!! So stupid. Anyways Grab Mozilla M18 renders most of my Javascript DOA as well. or a nightly build from www.mozilla.org heh the whole support issue of it were anyone to take it serious would be hell, there are nightly builds, milestones, debug versions, and then you have Netscape 6 which most people will have :-P Anyways, Until they release a real product whats the point in supporting it.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
In my opinion, IE was what killed the entire topic of web browsers - it stinks, Netscape is getting to be as bad, or perhaps even worse now, and everyone else went off and pouted because the big boys didn't want to let them play ball. That's too bad - at least the iCab, Opera and a few other teams continue to attempt to prove that one can still browse the internet without such bug-ridden applications as IE and Netscape... -- "See, he's not just anyone ... he's my son."

I also hate to tell you that IE and Netscape are based off of the open source Mozilla project which Opera has followed closely with. While I prefer IE to other browsers, I don't think there's anything in IE which has to do with Mozilla, or open source in general for that matter. For browser trivia buffs, IE was originally based on the Spyglass browser, which in turn was based on the original Mosaic browser. At this point, though, I doubt that there's much Spyglass code left in IE.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I hate adding my 2 cents to the same age old debates but here goes... It's a matter of preference. Users, surfing... don't notice too much that one page works great and another doesn't, or that a webmaster had pulled every last hair out of his/her head (or anywhere else) trying to get a web site to look the same for every browser. As developers and designers, we notice the differences the most, and to the developers of these browsers, they could probably care less. IE, while not everyone's most favorite, actually does tolerate developers more. It allows for errors. Figures out what you were most likely trying to do. Netscape doesn't allow for that as much. But if you do exactly what it had intended, then it could very well work better than IE. For me personally, I choose IE... just for the little things... like putting a "Height" tag in my tables, and for using "document.image" almost universally, instead of having to make sure I list all the layers it may be in for Netscape. Now then, that all said... you'll notice I didn't mention a version once. It's always the same. It always comes down to the same thing. Especially since, if read back in this thread about 10 messages or so... none mention the version numbers either :) Stuart Duncan MaracasMeda Inc.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
IE is based off of Mozilla? Have you taken a look at your user_agent string lately? HTTP_USER_AGENT=Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) That doesn't mean that IE is based off of Mozilla. It means that it identifies itself to HTTP servers as compatible with Netscape 4. This started back when IE first came out; it was common at the time for server-side code to look at the user agent, and give the user one page if they had Netscape and another if they had ANYTHING ELSE.

But if you do exactly what it had intended, then it could very well work better than IE. For me, this is the exact reason I stay with Netscape as my primary browser. By coding all my HTML and JavaScript for Netscape first, it's much more likely to work in IE with no problems than if I did the HTML in IE first and then tried to make it work in Netscape also. There are some situations where this is not the case, but 99% of the time it saves me hours of development time because I never have to go back and rewrite half my HTML/JavaScript to make it compatible with both browsers. Our entire development team (except me) uses IE as the primary browser, and I can't even begin to count the number of times I've heard "!@#$%^* Netscape!!" come from someone's desk because they thought the site they've been working on for days or weeks was done, but low and behold the display gets all screwy in Netscape and they have to spend another day fixing it.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I think it depends a lot on Corporations, in Australia we have standards in most large corporations ( I would assume the same goes in the USA). These standards means that until otherwise deemed safe these companies will not migrate to the latest and greatest. Now take this one step further, most companies (large ones) sign deals with MS to become a MS house. MS in their wisdom will tell you you cannot use anything that they have, for example I have worked in places where I can't use dreamweaver because MS has frontpage. However as a developer I hated IExplorer, until IE 4.0 came out. I then found that to survive netscape needed to start making more standards available in their browser. They took their time about this and lost a big slice of the market share, however I think that Netscape 6 may be the answer to all and until I have had a chance to run it I can't say. But the reports during beta were positive to say the least. When developing I always use IE, because I can use it with Studio. Then during the final stages run through everything with it under Netscape and then fix anything I need to do. But personally I like what MS have delivered in IE and await to see Netscapes answer, and it would have to be good to start to regain the market share that they have lost. regards Andrew Scott Senior Cold Fusion Application Developer ANZ eCommerce Centre * Ph 9273 0693 * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Justin Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 15 November 2000 12:09 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Netscape 6 out UGH IE, while not everyone's most favorite, actually does tolerate developers more.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I for one could not find anything positive to say about Netscape 6. It never once blew me away. I have basic Javascript in my browser that works completely fine in Netscape 4.7. Now Netscape 6 comes out and it doesn't work, what is up with that. I already code enough to do 2 browsers now I have to code to do 3. The reason I started this discussion was to inform everyone that it isn't great, hasn't been great since Mozilla, and I don't even know if it will be great for a long long time. The only thing it has going for it is that it is ported to other operating systems. Everyone can be a M$ hater all they want but at least they know how to make a browser.

RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
*g* Can't argue with this logic and I agree for the same reasons I left MS for Netscape during the V3.0 days and later returned back to IE in the V4.0 days and have never switched back. With what I also hear from peoples comments I don't think its worth it... Although I did check out geko (is this right) in the earlier days but wasn't impressed at all. regards Andrew Scott Senior Cold Fusion Application Developer ANZ eCommerce Centre * Ph 9273 0693 * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Robert Everland III [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 15 November 2000 13:05 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Netscape 6 out UGH I for one could not find anything positive to say about Netscape 6.

Re: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
I see Netscape as the HTML equivalent to coding with "Strict Attribute Validation" turned on g. I think you mean "lowest common denominator" Perhaps, but I was referring more to the fact that Netscape points out HTML problems much more readily than IE does, which forces the coder to follow standards more strictly than if they had coded everything under IE first. Similar to the way CF won't let you place extra parameters on tags when that setting in enabled. I can think of any number of sites that were coded and tested exclusively in IE that do a fairly good job of following HTML standards, but have a few very small problems that Netscape screams about that IE blows off. For example, PayPal had a problem on one of their pages that got past their QA team where a set of radio buttons were all marked as being selected. Netscape did what it was told, it selected all of them (an obvious coding error). In IE, it defaulted the last (or first, I don't remember exactly) one that was marked and acted as if nothing else was wrong. I can't remember how many sites I've been to where a page just stops displaying right in the middle (if at all) because the developer forgot to close a table tag. I understand that a good round of testing in both common browsers is pretty much standard in any web development so that these types of annoying (and potentially embarassing) errors can be avoided. My point is basically that by developing under the more strict environment first, the layout testing and correction process is much easier, and less time consuming. I'm not saying it's a better browser in general, just better for developing under (in my personal experience anyway). ___ Justin Scott :: [Staff Developer] http://www.annex.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Netscape 6 out UGH!!!!
Well I for one am thankful that it's not a piece of cake to develop reliable websites. If it was easy, there'd be a FrontPage that works fine, and we'd be besieged with 13 year old school kids taking business from us here highly qualified professionals. Whenever I'm sitting fretting over something tricky that isn't working after 3 hours of working on it, I'm reminded of a sage word of wisdom my father told me ... "No one pays big money for something any fool could do!" Nope. It takes a special kind of fool to do this web site stuff.
