Actually it mis-identified the browser as being Netscape and assumes that any browser so identified supports the same DOM as 4.x That the proprietary features supported by Netscape were flagged as 'to be removed' some 4 years or so ago doesn't seem to have permeated many sites. But then the amount of bit rot accumulating in web sites is directly proportional to the amount of rot talked about them. S > >-- >Hvis svaret er Anders Fogh s� er sp�rgsm�let dumt.
