No one is forcing you to use anything.  You made your own choice to use an 
older browser.

His site works great with Mozilla 1.4 on Linux an Mozilla 1.7.1 on Windows

Consistently crashes my Netscape 4.8 (circa 2003). yeah, I still use it, because I 
prefer its news reader. Very few attacks on this mature mail program. That said,

Well done. It looks like you put a lot of work into it. One suggestion I
have is to leverage your medium - why not allow user comments on each page
or even make the entire thing a wiki?

I read a few pages and had a few comments to make, and this would be
convenient if I could type them in as I think of them. I think this is one
of the greatest things about the PHP manual. You could also try to point
people toward other resources - for some topics, there are already
numerous resources on the Web that are very good. These would be nice to
include at the end of a particular topic, because getting multiple
perspectives is always best for the reader.

Hope that helps.

Chris

Anyway, if you have any ideas as to how it can be improved, I'd be
happy to hear from you.  The URL is http://www.hudzilla.org/php and my
email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Looks nice :l
One thing: replace "weakly typed" with "loosely typed" in 
http://www.hudzilla.org/php/3_1_0.php (after the first red box)

Good job, Scotty!
