I really have to ask. Why this world shattering need to create NS6 support?
I recently posted statistics that showed that 3/10th of 1% of world Internet
travelers are using NS6/Mozilla combined. Opera has a bigger following.
>From what I understand we're using NS6 as a watermark for futrue domcentric
browsers not because it "critical" due to penetration issues of a new
browser. If you do your research Richard, not many clients will scream for
NS6 support once they realize just how insignificant the issue really is.
The only reason this hysteria for NS6 even exists is because Netscape has a
brand name. People hear Netscape and think "Must be important!". NS4 is
important, because thats the browser of choice for the anti Microsoft
followers. They all tried NS6 and went back to NS4.
