[Richard Zach]

Filed a separate bug on the table issue: bug 32606.

Site relies on <LAYER> or <ILAYER> tags, document.layers, document.all, or fails
to detect client correctly. 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.
