This is partially true Linda.  Netscape 4x supports CSS quite sporadically 
while Netscape 6x supports more CSS than IE 5x/6 does.  Opera, which was 
written by the creator of CSS also supports it differently.  If you really 
want to delve into advanced web design then add some XML to CSS.  If you 
want to move beyond Netscape 6 then go for Mozilla 
http://www.mozilla.org/releases/.
Usually with Netscape 4x when the page says document done, you have to 
reload the page to have it display correctly.
