RE: [SLE] Ongoing Netscape Woes... MORE PROBLEMS
Ignore that Fixed email - got a bit excited. Our intranet site displayed correctly (as best as Netscape can!) and then decided to attack the internet, view a web site with <DIV> tags as layers and - nope. It all looks crap again. What can I do to get Netscape to display things correctly?! I turned on Java and this seemed to half fix things... what about a Java update. And don't ask me why Java is related to <DIV>.

First up, I thank you for your response to my short questionnaire about what web browsers you all use... I already knew the answer - what else is available for Linux for surfin' the ol' 'net?! :) [No answers needed here, its a rhetorical question!]
Anyway, my latest problem from the Netscape front is very bizarre indeed. I log in as Root on my Linux machine and to all extent the web page displays fairly correctly (minor faults) with web pages that have layers (<DIV> tags) in them. I log in as a normal user - and guess what? The layers are all strewn all over the place again!!!!
I've updated to 4.72 - both from a patch AND (because that didn't solve initil problems) I downloaded the full 4.72 from the SuSE site. This is all working and the browser reports it as 4.72 (as do the web logs).
I detest Netscape 4.x. I've never liked it. I hate having to design web pages for this "web browser".
How many of you actually like Netscape 4.x? Don't answer that neither - it will depress me if I'm the only one who dislikes it...

Assuming it's not a cache thing (are you really displaying what the server sent you? - check source view), you could put the offending HTML somewhere where I can see it and I'll tell you what it looks like in my browser under root or a normal user...
