OFFTOPIC: does anyone know why PRE is not giving a non-proportional font 
when using Netscape and STYLE-sheets to change the font?
OR can I solve this? Or am I making a mistake?

Seems like style sheets in Netscape don't have
a consistent support for fonts. For some reason,
I sometimes can't even set the default font.
After getting tired checking and rechecking my
style sheets, I browsed into Netscape site in
search for an explanation. I had no success, but
I can tell the Netscape browser ONLY supports
what's explicitly stated in Netscape's website,
because they don't say anything about what's
unsupported. I'd refrain from using style sheets
with Communicator until 6.0 final is released,
because its support is very good and consistent.
Actually Netscape Communicator still doesn't
support nested tags with style sheets, comple-
tely ignoring the styles. 6.0 will change this.

But, there is no way to make Netscape use some non-proportional font with the
style sheet settings of the FAQ?
Is there any workaround?

We (MCCW) have some more problems with Netscape bugs... If you like, I can tell
you all about it.

Another thing: if there is an unnecessary /p or /b or other closing tag,
Netscape will drop out of the Style Sheet settings and resumes with the default
stuff...

Talking about Netscape 4.x for Unix: in a FORM OPTION list, the background will
always be gray. Luckily it is possible to change the FONT colour locally, by
using the FONT tag. But it is nasty. In Netscape 3.x this was no problem, since
the background colour of the OPTION list was the same as the BGCOLOR tag
prescribes. But not in 4.x...

It seems we are forced to use other browsers than Netscape...
PLease check the FAQ with your browser and report me when it is not working...
(Concentrate on the PRE parts, which are especially in the connector
section...)

Anyway, despite the Netscape problems, I hope you all enjoy the new layout of
the FAQ. It was a hell of a lot of work. Any other suggestions are welcome of
course.

Mozilla (close cousin of the soon-to-be Netscape 6). Very good CSS  JavaScript
support; with Sun Java SDK 2.0 you also have good Java support. Still a bit
buggy, but it's coming there. Since it's open-source I won't think of using
anything else.

Konqueror is out of beta, KDE2 was released about 2-3 weeks ago. Konqueror is 
still not 100% finished, but it's usable. I use it more than Netscape. Its 
main weakness is the JavaScript support, which is either buggy or 
incompatible with other browsers (I haven't investigated which). It's also 
not entirely stable, but more stable than Netscape. I read it has pretty good 
style sheet support. And it renders fast.

Java is handled through a plug-in (same way Mozilla does it, apparently). 
Both Sun and IBM have released JDK 1.3.0 for Linux. JavaScript is supported, 
but not free of problems. MIDI can be handled through a Netscape plug-in 
(Konqueror can use them, so Shockwave Flash is also possible).

Actually I think Netscape is slow. Is IE even slower? My impression is that 
it's faster, but I don't use it often.

One problem of Netscape is that it doesn't respond to user interface events 
while it is rendering. So if a big document just finished loading and is 
being formatted in another Netscape window, the window I'm reading cannot be 
scrolled.

  Because that is bad formed html coding. I would suppose that is good
  thing. I don't like the 'I allow alot of errors' approach from IE.

 This is very odd. I think the standard states that
 illegal tags should be ignored, no matter what.

The problem is that IE doesn't ignore illegal tags, but it tries to display 
them. And it does so pretty good. But the result is that many people write 
bad HTML and think it's good HTML because IE displays it.

Fortunately, in the XML standard it is specified that incorrect syntax may 
not be processed.

Using TT is safer, because it's hard to predict which fonts are fixed-width 
(that's platform dependant).
