True. I only use it because there are some sites that refuse to work with any netscape like 6 or 7 - don't even think of using mozilla or konkeror or whatever
Hey, if this is the case file a bug report over at bugzilla.mozilla.org. The Moz team is good about handling site compatibility issues and things of the sort, and with good reason. I've had a couple resolved myself for bugs I've submitted.
No, it is worse than that... it is the site maintainers that do not want to make the web page work with any other browser: they check the browser you are using, and if they don't like it, they refuse to serve the page. And I'm thinking of a goverment page here (http://www.cert.fnmt.es/???), which is used to obtain the certificate needed for submiting tax forms in Spain. The tax agency itself requires Netscape 6 or newer, but the certificate agency required a 4.7 netscape. Go figure! Fortunately, the certificate can be exported and used later. That was so last year, and till next year I will not need to renew. I don't know if the problem persists now. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
