RIP Netscape 4.79...

Something wonderful is happening. Sun IT is finally EOL'ing and removing Netscape from servers within Sun! Soon, everybody will be using Mozilla to conduct business. This is great for one simple reason: I don't have to worry about getting layouts, scripts and other components of a web application to work on Netscape 4.79 anymore.

Of course, the supported version of Mozilla is still a bit behind the times, but I'll take it.

Glad to hear that. I love Mozilla and use it on every platform. However, my Mozilla on my favorite platform (i.e. Solaris) is at 1.1. Why? Because newer builds use that pile of shit called Xprint. Just be careful to avoid that. It produces resolution-dependent PS files. They don't preview, they don't share. Crap.

Volker A. Brandt: Maybe you should learn to read the FAQ (which has an answer for your problem) before spamming all blogs at blogs.sun.com.
