FYI...

A lot of people are saying Ebay works with Netscape 4.xx or 7.xx, iCab or IE
5 and OS 9.2.2 etc. When you say it works I hope you have tried "uploading a
picture" to Ebay or making a payment in Paypal. These are javascripts, that
(as of the last time I tried it, the first week of last August) DO NOT work.

Sure Ebay looks fine in Netscape 7.x (but is terribly slow using a phone
modem) but technically DOES NOT WORK since one of the most important
features just sits there and does nothing. An Ebay listing without a picture
is pretty useless. Sure I can set up an outside account and host my own
pictures, but that entails more steps that Ebay has provisions for.

The same goes for Paypal. I was loading the first page fine, but when I
tried to make payments etc. Netscape 7 was crapping out again.

So if Ebay and Paypal have fixed these problems than I apologize but if they
haven't I wouldn't say they render these sites fine with OS 9.2.2.

So what DOES WORK? What works and has worked for me and my friends is
Mozilla 1.2.1.

We have been selling on Ebay, uploading pics to Ebay and making payments,
withdrawing money etc. with Paypal. The only glitches I have found is a
couple of javascripts in Ebay. One is the "preview description" link. It is
right under the area where you write your description. I could care less
about this glitch because you just have to go to the next page to see it
previewed and if there is a problem you can hit the back button.
