I do not want to use Netscape until Mozilla does not crash. And I do not
want to use Netscape 4.7 because it has issues and tends to crash.
And IE5 really is very standards compliant. If you have seen it you would
have to agree. It does style sheets properly along with just about
everything in the HTML 4.0 spec. I really like how it handles
Javascript... i.e. It works correctly.
Netscape 4.7 cannot do half what IE5 for the Mac can do, and I do not like
that fact, but it is true. WaSP praised MS for creating such a complete
browser, then blasted it for such a poor browser in IE 5.5 for Win32.
The Mac team did such a good job with the Mac browser that they were
dissolved. MS did not like that the PC version was garbage by comparison.
So there I am, stucking using one of the only good MS products and now
Sourceforge tells me I cannot log into their site with it.
