NS4 is only 2% of the market and I can't test it without building another Linux 7.2 system which has NS4 :( Peter's http://www.quirksmode.org/ page is great for explaining events: under _javascript_ -> Events Thanks for this link. A very helpful explanation of NS4 event handling.

You can get as old as 4.08 (win32, non-linux, mac) and as new as the 4.79 (win32, linux 2.2, mac) and 4.8 (win32, linux 2.2, mac) browser. Leif I went to browsers.evolt.org - it goes back as far as Navigator 0.4 (yes 0.4, 16 bit). Remember 16 bit programs and Windows 3.1? It can be quite amusing to get an old pre-_javascript_ web browser and see how it renders the most ordinary of modern web sites. Anyway, I downloaded the windows versions of NS4.04 and NS4.79. NS4.04 doesn't run _any_ of the dynapi examples. It complains about the many places throughout dynapi where a "function does not always return a value.". When I get some time I'll make a list of them, if anyone is interested. NS4.79 seems to work quite well. By the time I finish with this I'll hopefully have some useful documentation on dynapi event handling. I'll keep you posted. Andrew.
