I'll have a shufty at the Netscape site as the NS4.72 from the SuSE 6.4 Update section still gives the same errors - layers are displayed all over the place. I am not liking Netscape 4.x very much - all the lovely sites I design with Layers just display very very badly on NS for Linux. NS6 is a LOVELY web browser... just waiting for a new release and I'm away with IE5 as my default browser (on Windows, anyway!). I was discussing with a friend how annoying it is designing web sites that look great on one machine, and look terrible on another and the various permutations that can exist - NS on Windows displays thinsg fine - Linux doesn't. I know we have to design for the older browsers, but the techniques I use don't gel well with them. But, at the same time the Linux website I'm designing won't look good if I put a "Best Viewed With Internet Explorer" button on it!!! I don't want to go back to the old 'Centre/Center' web page design that spotty 13 year olds design in their bedrooms - nor battle with Frames!! (Though my collegue is resorting to this now for our site). Never been a fan of Netscape - but I do reckon NS6 has changed that. I'll stop now because I'm starting a browser war with myself! Kev

Try getting this file. It's under unsupported on Netscape's site. It's the 128 bit version, but I am sure there is a 40bit version if you so desire.
communicator-v472-us.x86-unknown-linux2.2.tar.gz
I thought that maybe it was specifcally for the 2.2.X kernel I maybe wrong about this, but it doesn't crash very much and seems to run pretty well.
I'm having a problem with Netscape 4.7 that comes with SuSE 6.3 When I design sites with layers - either SOME layers are in
are just all over the show when viewed with NS4.7! If I view the site in IE4 or above all is well. If I view
just my 0.02 place or some this on Netscape
for Windows all is well. Mozilla5 all is well (on Windows).
This is worrying because the main site I'm working on is a Linux site! Is there an update available for NS4.7 for SuSE 6.3?
