request for technical comments

Howdy, folks,

I have a site I've been working on which is my first that invests
significantly in DOM and the use of javascript to toggle styles. This is
primarily for menu functionality but not only that ('past productions').

Some issues remain for me though it seems to function properly in the later
browsers (though I'm not able to test in IE4 - if someone could take a look,
I'd appreciate it!).

1) Netscape 4.x always displays the first <div ....> section even if
visibility is set to 'hidden'. I've worked around this by creating a blank
section for it to display. But I figure this must mean that I've something
wrong somewhere.

2) For most of the site I have ways for the older browsers to view the same
data that is accessible via the mouseover menus. (At this time, 'past
productions' is an exception.) However, though Netscape 3 can view the page
and get the right content, it does not create a vertical scroll bar, and so
not all of the content is viewable. So it degrades, but not quite
gracefully!

I'm not particularly looking for a site critique per se though any such
comments are welcome. My main concern are the issues mentioned above.

Thanks for any responses!
