Re: XML not rendered
It would be quite nice (REALLY nice) if Moz could apply a default XSL to XML files that do not supply one. That shouldn't be too hard. Or is it that it would not be propah? Ranjit.

IE5 (on MacOS 9 at least) has a bug where it doesn't display properly formatted XHTML 1.0 To get this behaviour on windows, you have to give the file a .xml extension. I guess some people might consider this a useful feature, but it doesn't belong in a Web Browser. To display XML in a Browser, you need to tell the browser how to display the data (with some kind of stylesheet). -- . \|/ . (o o) +--ooO--(_)--Ooo--+ | There is no emotion, there is peace.

MSN Passport NS6.1 data security issues
Hi, If I try to modify my profile in Passport at this URL: https://register.passport.com/editprof.srf I get the following message: --- 8 -- Browser Not Supported Unfortunately, Microsoft® .NET Passport does not support the Web browsing software you are using. Please use supported browsing software such as Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later, or Netscape Navigator versions 4.08-4.82. If you use Netscape Navigator 6.1: due to possible data security issues, you cannot currently access .NET Passport using Netscape Navigator 6.1. We take security seriously and are working with Netscape to resolve these issues as soon as possible so that .NET Passport can support Netscape Navigator 6.1. Until that time, please use supported browsing software. We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your patience. --- 8 -- What data security issues are there in NS6.1 that are not there in NS4.08-4.82(- HUH???)???

Re: Mozilla 0.9.4 Perfomance
Rob wrote: future I was very happy to find .4 so much better. W98SE On a related but unrelated note, Netscape 4.78 is much more stable for me than any of the earlier releases, using or not using the new java plugin. I agree completely. Communicator 4.78 is so much faster and more stable than the earlier releases that it's a pity that they incremented the version number only by 0.01. Ranjit.
Re: user_pref(dom.disable_open_during_load, true);
Yes, that seems to be the problem. I disabled Java and it seems to work fine now. I turned it on and it again crashed, even on another site that used Java applets. Ranjit.

Re: VERY SLOW access to Bookmarks (Mozilla 0.9.3)
FYI, I have filed a Bugzilla bug (ID: 97096) about this, but it hasn't seen any activity. :-( See all the comments at: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97096 As you can see there, I could trace my problem to a couple of bookmarks that were referring to NT servers that I hadn't authenticated myself to - if I remove those URLs or if I authenticate myself to these servers, the problem disappears. However, this is not a problem with either IE 5.0 or NS 4.78. Ranjit. Ranjit Mathew wrote: Thanks for the pointer.

My mistake, I'm VERY sorry - somehow, I had uninstalled the Java Plug-in, yet had the JDK/JRE hanging around. I have been able to rectify the problem without having to reinstall everything. Here's how: 1. I have JDK1.3 installed in D:\JDK1_3. The sub-folder jre\bin within this contains the np*.dll as well as the plugincpl.cpl Control Panel applet. 2. I first created the registry key (using regedit): HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Plug-in\1.3 3. I then created a String value within this key named JavaHome and containing the value d:\JDK1_3\jre (the path to the JRE essentially). 4. I copied the np*.dll files from D:\JDK1_3\jre\bin to my Mozilla Plugins folder. 5. I copied the plugincpl.cpl file from D:\JDK1_3\jre\bin to Windoze system32 folder. And that's all! All my applets now work properly! And the cool thing is that Netscape 4.78 also works with the Java plug-in (after copying the np*.dll files into the Netscape Plugins folder)!!

VERY SLOW access to Bookmarks (Mozilla 0.9.3)
Hi, Of late, my Mozilla 0.9.3 has started behaving somewhat weird - the *first time* I access my bookmarks in a Mozilla window, it takes VERY long to open and freezes *all* the Mozilla windows. This consistently happens the first time I access the bookmarks from a window - subsequent accesses to the bookmarks are reasonably fast, though if I again access the bookmarks from another virgin window in the same browser session the same phenomenon happens. This was not a problem in previous versions of Mozilla I have been using (every version upto 0.9.0). Does any one know if this is a bug (no, I couldn't find it in Bugzilla) or if there's a workaround for this? Thanks for your help in advance, Ranjit ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

Installing a new Mozilla Release
Hi, Of late, I've been installing the various Mozilla stable releases (0.9.1, 0.9.2, etc.) and, needless to say, have been VERY impressed with it - it's my default browser for almost everything except for brain-dead sites that require me to use IE. Congratulations and sincere Thanks to all of you who made this possible. I digress, however. The point is, as recommended, I uninstall the old version and then freshly install the new release. In fact, I take this advice to the extreme and remove ALL files related to Mozilla - files related to my profile, mozver.dat etc. from the Windoze folder - before installing the new release. And it has worked PERFECTLY every time - I've had no problems after installation. However, this is QUITE painful, though somewhat ameliorated by backing up address books, bookmarks, etc. SO...Isn't there an easier way of doing this? I mean, shouldn't it be OK if I let my old profile hanging there, including cookie permissions, image permissions (man, I LOVE this feature!), etc.? Would the gurus here be kind enough to enlighten this poor soul? And BTW, the Java plug-in DOES NOT WORK. Period. I've tried a zillion-and-one things, yes, including all the things suggested in this newsgroup, but it just does not work. But this is another digression, I fear. Anyways, thanks in advance for your help and once again, thank you very much for creating this beauty.
