These effects rely on <LAYER> or <ILAYER> tags, and document.layers. See
http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/standards.html for details on
standards-compliance in Mozilla, and which proprietary features of NS 4.x and IE
will not be supported. 

Marking INVALID as per http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

Moving all [LAYER] bugs to Evangelism component for tracking and open-source
evangelism by mozilla community members of sites that need to upgrade to support 
web standards such as HTML 4.0 (instead of LAYER/ILAYER) and the W3C DOM
(instead of Nav4 document.layers[] or IE document.all()). Sites should be
lobbied to do the upgrade using the email templates that are linked to from
http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs . When a site's owner
has confirmed receipt of the message requesting an upgrade, the bug should be
marked with the keyword evangelized to indicate that evangelism for that bug is
complete. When the site finishes the upgrade and supports standards, the bug
should be closed.

Reopening to register fact that this page probably isn't yet upgraded (until it 
is, at which point we'll close the bug). evangwanted.

DynamicDrive.com now has lots of new code which is NS6 Compatible.
Perhaps this should be marked as WONTFIX....

actually if they fix their content so it works with Mozilla, then we mark the
bug FIXED. If they decided not to fix their content then we mark them WONTFIX
