Recent Netscape (4.x, usually 4.7x) doesn't seem to be all that great from an accessibility standpoint. Most people with visual disabilities will tend to use Internet Explorer. Of Netscape, IE, Opera -- Netscape is a distant third. Should you still be concerned with it? Probably. The support for CSS and HTML is pretty bad, though, and Javascript incompatibilities are always a big problem for dynamic web design. But it's deployed on a lot of user installations, usually in large organizations, which don't want to use Microsoft stuff. Netscape 6 looks somewhat more promising (if just for standards support) but has been notoriously unstable. --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@reef.com> Technical Developer Liaison Reef North America Accessibility - W3C - Integrator Network Tel +1 949-567-7006 ________________________________________ BUSINESS IS DYNAMIC.
