I will try to post a test case soon, it looks like it could be a combination of
javascript and css problems.
I'm using Build 2000010416 on WinNT currently.

Hmm. Well, aside from the javascript error message in Nav 4.6, the docs for
the game http://www.siteexperts.com/games/connect4/page1.asp state that this
requires IE4+. So, upfront, there is no guarantee that this would ever work
on Mozilla. I'm tempted to mark this INVALID, but I haven't looked long enough
to sort out if this is W3C DOM.

[e-mail] : if you can create a simple testcase that demonstrates
a bona fide bug in the Mozilla DOM, that would be much appreciated.

That was so misleading. I logged into www.mywebos.com which is touted to be "the
internet OS" basically it's supposed to become your desktop on the web -
accessible by any computer; with 20 megs of online disk space. Sounds like a
kindof good idea. Only one major drawback - it only works with IE 5.0. Oh yeah,
that limits it's abilities to Windows only. I don't think macs even have ie5.0.
Anyways, they detected I had something other than IE5.0 so it said I could use
hyperoffice as my desktop instead - however it appears that hyperoffice requires
IE4.0 - and doesn't even bother to detect whether you have that or not.

sorry for the spam.
