Quadraphiles:

Hello again. Another question: Has anyone else out there noticed that eBay
pages tend to crash Netscape 4.08 and IE 3.01 more frequently than anything else?

I have written to the list several times complaining about the general
bugginess of the aforementioned browsers, but I only recently made the
connection that it is almost invariably eBay pages, particularly Checkout or
Billpoint payment pages that have pull-downs and other gee-gaws on them (these
are all JavaScript gizmos, right?) that cause the crashes. 

I have observed through my use of iCab's error-reporting feature (a very nice
touch) that eBay pages tend to be rife with JavaScript errors, particularly
those called "stack overflow" errors.

Does eBay not follow standard protocols or something? Can anyone suggest ways
that will make Netscape and IE deal with these issues with equanimity?

Thanks,

Rob Johansen
