Summary: Bug in DynLayer.specificRemove for NS4.x

Initial Comment:
Hi everybody!


In the DynLayer.prototype.specificRemove() function is a bug that occurs when 
unloading a page. Line 
123 (18/04/2001-CVS version) reads:

                this.elm.visibility = "hide";

It seems like the visibility property of a layer is not present in NS 4.x anymore as 
soon as the main 
onunload event has been fired. The line simply fails without leaving a trace in 
Netscape's JavaScript 
Console. :-\ Furthermore, execution of subsequent onunload commands is terminated.

This bug might happen only if you are using frames and want to make sure that certain 
elements are 
deleted (by a DynLayer.del() call) when certain parts of the frameset are unloaded.

I have a simple workaround: comment out the line! ;-) I have not noticed any problems 
so far, but there 
might be side effects that I am not aware of.

This bug is present in DynAPI versions 2.5 and 2.51 as well as the current 
(18/04/2001) CVS version. I 
have tested this with NS 4.08, 4.73 and 4.76 on Win 2000 and Win 98.


Best regards,

Christof
