Does my site work with all browsers?

[crj]

if you have netscape or opera, can you look at my site and tell me if you can see the content under "updates" and "notes"?

i know it works with ie but i'm not sure for any others....

I use iframe to make those.... does that work for all browsers?

Nope... it was created by M$ and therefore works only in IE.

What? :confused:

[crj]

is there a substitute i can use for iframe? one that will work on netscape and opera....

[Bruce]

You could just replace your floating frame with a regular frameset or just use tables.

[zazoo]

if your willing to deal with plain old black on whit you can use text boxes But i dunno if thats going to match your layout:(

[Bruce]

You can change the color of text boxes with css.

[crj]

how does text boxes work?

Can i use div tags instead? will those work on netscape and opera too? if not, is there a substitute that does the same thing?

thanks for all the help

<TEXTAREA NAME=whatever, ROWS=n, COLS=n>bla bla bla </TEXTAREA>

Not in 6.1...

It doesn't? ----, it says in all those lists it does. Doesn't it work at all?:confused:

[Bruce]

Nope :(

Thanks. I had noted down that it should work from version 6.0B1 whatever THAT is.

Um, why don't you just download and install Netscape and Opera, so you can tell for yourself?

Maybe he's on dialup and doesn't want to waste the time?

Or maybe he only has a 4 gig harddrive like me and doesn't want to waste the space.

Sorry Phroz, but Netscape 6.1 fully supports iFrames. Well, "fully" is the wrong word, there is at least one bug: you can't use a percentage when specifying height, you've got to give it in pixels. Change "height=100%" to "height=150" and you'll be fine, Crj.

Netscape 4.x didn't support iFrames. You can replicate them using iLayers and some JavaScript, though.

[crj]

i have a dial up modem... 28k something like that... its really slow but i can still go online.

i'll just use text boxes like suggested in earlier posts, thanks

Ok, so I made a mistake then. The only thing I based my statement on was crj's site. heh.

When did 5.0 come out? I thought they skipped it?

[Dusty]

When did 5.0 come out?Before 6.0 and after 4.7. It was available for "testing" from netscape.com for a couple of weeks, then dropped and never spoken of again.

[Dusty]

Come to think of it, I probably still have a copy somewhere, I know I downloaded it. I'd have to dig it up. When it was first made available for download there was an article about it and its use of the "revolutionary Gecko engine" in PC Magazine (I think those were the words it used). It was very, very, very primitive.

[Dusty]

Last follow-up, I swear :D

It was released on Tuesday, March 31st, 1998. I think it was first made public at the XML '98 conference where it made a big splash and Gecko got a lot of wows for its XML support. But alas, due to delays Microsoft had time to release IE 5.0 and Netscape lost the market. RIP Netscape 5.0 :(

[meow]

If you find the setup, can I have it please? :)

[LastActionHero]

Meow please respond to my PM fast!
