Yeah, you will not get it to work in Netscape 4.x. The only way to swap background colors effect to work in Netscape 4.x is to make each table row a <LAYER> and then use document.write on an onmouseover event to rewrite the contents of the layer with a different color. VERY painful. You might want to look at the nav-bar solution we developed for www.frbatlanta.org (visit using netscape 4, then do view-source) to get a sense of what real PAIN is like!
