Ah, *that's* what it was called.  Has anybody reported this bug to them?  If
not, I will.

*shudders* Oooo, that's frightening.  *shudders again* Good luck with that.
BTW, I used to be a major Netscapephile and totally anti-Microsoft...until I
became a web developer, that is.  I'm sure I'm not the first person to
proclaim this and not the last.  It seems that, with the exception of some
improvements on page layout, the further along NS gets, the worse it gets.
And that's all I'll say on that because I'm sure complaints about NS
stylesheet/javascript issues has been done to death on this list so I'll
spare everybody.

About as worthless as AOL as a whole. :)   Sometimes I wonder now if Warner
Brothers pictures will now be coming out with movies/DVDs that don't work
with all players!! ;)
