Richard,
How about retrieving the coordinates of a relatively-positioned layer in
Netscape?
Right now it always gives me (0,0), when the same page in IE gives the
correct
coordinates of the layer. Do you know a workaround for this problem?
Thanks,
Jonah

You're right, this will be very hard to do, you'd be best off loading your
text into separate dynlayers, and showing/hiding them I think.
This is also a well known fact, if you look at any site's with collapsing
text, like parts of irt.org, it never works in NS4.
