A menu should pop up when the mouse is moved to the left-hand edge of the page.
 The script to do this is used by other pages, where it works.  Errors in the
JavaScript console suggest that an earlier
</script
> tag has not been recognised, presumably because of the white space (newline)
before the closing '>'.

The page validates as HTML 4.01 with no errors.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to URL given above
2. Move mouse pointer to within 1em of the left-hand edge of the page
3.

Actual Results:  1. Some lines at the bottom of the page were not displayed
2. No menu appeared after step 2.

Expected Results:  1. The whole page should have been displayed, the first
missing line being "Planner  Dave Sparks (POTOC)".
2. A menu should pop up when the mouse is allowed to nibble the left-hand edge
of the page.

The page works on Netscale 6.01 on Windows.
Works for me on Win98 using an 07/28 build.  I think this was fixed on 07/05 in 
bug 72249.  Dave, can you grab a newer SunOS build and check whether the page 
works now?

Browser, not engine. Reassigning to Parser component - 
And resolving as WORKSFORME.

Using WinNT binaries 20010714xx, 20010721xx, Linux binary 20010713xx.
The site works perfectly for me in all these builds - 

Dave, if the problem goes away for you, too with a newer build,
you can mark this bug "Verified". If the problem is still there,
you can reopen it - and thank you for this report.
