www.isonews.com drops down javascripts menu when you click on the menu on the
top of the page. I searched for <layer> <ilayer> document.all and document.layer

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to www.isonews.com
2.try to click on the "releases" link on the top navbar


Actual Results:  mouseover of the link works , but when click the menu doesn't come.

Expected Results:  a menu should drop down

I searched for layers or document.all document.layer but didn't found any ...
maybe I overlooked it.

Yes but you didn't search the javascript files which it includes.


http://www.isonews.com/common/js-functions.php3

if (navigator.appName == "Netscape" && navigator.appVersion.substring(0,1) < 5) {
	layerStyleRef="layer.";
	layerRef="document.layers";
	styleSwitch="";
	visibleVar="show";
	btype="ns";
}
else{
	layerStyleRef="layer.style.";
	layerRef="document.all";
	styleSwitch=".style";
	visibleVar="visible";
	btype="ie";
}


So this is evangelism.
