What do you want to do with that bar2.gif before the table data? After all, deleting the first table was not the main error of the netscape view, perhabs you should add that table again and also the tr and td

Netscape is the pickiest browser. Every time I think I've come up with a cool effect that works on IE Netscape screws it up and I have to start all over. What I've been told is "Netscape follows the rules to the T where IE is more forgiving." Whatever it is I've grown to hate Netscape. Good thing is only <5% of our viewers use Netscape.

But think of this:

What was the first thing to be, the egg or the chicken? It's the same thing with webdesign. You Design a Page, and the visitors choose to stay or not. If there were only 5% of Netscape Users, think of your design settings and recheck it, you will loose thousands of profesional Netscpae-Users....

Yes, lot's of features from the Internet Explorer arn't availible in Netscape, but they are not W3C-standard's also. It is possible, to use IE and Netscape Features in the same html file, the browser only shows you the thing, he can, that's realy exciting Webdesing.
The Web is full of different System's, Browser's and Users, the work of a good webdesigner is to make webpages usefull for "the most" people availible.

Well I never ever professed to be "good webdesigner" but I'm trying to fix it... It looks like it's working in Netscape 6, I'm not about to check every version of everything out there.

Here is my feeling on this..

If you put your HTML code into templates, there is no reason for other admins to complain if it doesn't handle a particular browser. If they want support for that browser then they can edit the templates. The important thing in an addon or hack is to make sure the code works well and can be utilized in a wide range of vBulletin installations.

wluke, I agree totally.

I know I released my ?vbportal? before it was anything close to being perfect, in fact I did it intentionally hoping for a lot of input in order to make it as good and as customizable a hack for vBulletin as I could. Really just wanting to share something with the vB community and maybe attract a little traffic to my website as well.

Well, NS6.x renders html a LOT better than NS4.x does.

For those scared of the bloat in NS6, just go to www.mozilla.org and download the latest build. Its NS6.x w/out the AOL baggage.

It is truly hard to make stuff work on IE/NS4/NS6, though

If you write a good html Style (look at W3C), then every browser will display a result, that will look the same on quite different Browsers and Systems.
Perhab's just feel free to design your Website's with ms Word without thinking and we got much wore www rubbish.

wluke>>> I agree!. I used to be a Netscape diehard along time ago and feel the same way...it is very difficult to make it work with all versions and more so with Netscape. I have less that 1% of Netscape users coming to my sites and I refuse to make it work for all versions, I will at the most make it work for the latest version ONLY! nothing more nothing less....
