hzarabet -> Thanks again Netscape!! (4/26/2004 11:50:13)

Hi all...

This style sheet works fine in IE. In Netscape 4.08 it is caused the page to stop opening midway through and THEN locks up Netscape completely causing me to reboot each time to retest.

Thanks again Netscape...

Nothing wrong with the CSS, me thinks it's NN itself, ever thought of upgrading to 7.1?

Personally, I'd rather read from papyrus then use this junk, but I still have some users that use Netscape 4 so I would like it to AT LEAST function. I just test NS 4.08[:@]




hzarabet -> RE: Thanks again Netscape!! (4/26/2004 12:22:32)

OK, I found the cause, but can't figure out the solution!!!!

If I remove the "width" from "td" the page works:

Works:

td { height: 30px;
text-align: left;
}


Doesn't Work!!!!:

td { height: 30px;
width: 756px;
text-align: left;
}


Why is the width blowing out the Netscape page???????????




gorilla -> RE: Thanks again Netscape!! (4/26/2004 13:15:38)

you're not going to like this - NN4.xx is a POS - what I do is use @import so they see a well laid out unstyled page.

BUT rule of thumb for you:

anything with fonts is OK, anything with backgrounds is trial and error.

Anything with positioning is a nightmare especially floats, which can and do crash it.




hzarabet -> RE: Thanks again Netscape!! (4/26/2004 23:46:49)

Thanks Gorilla!

So this basically thumbs our nose at NS4.

NN4.xx has dreadful and dreadfully buggy CSS support here's a useful grid:
