1. Site relies on 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

2. Is WORKSFORME on Linux build 2000.04.07.08.  Added soemthing to the cart w/o
problems.

Only one bug per report, please.  Don't forget to give the Build ID of the
version of Mozilla you're testing.  If you can reproduce the second bug on a
recent build, please open a new bug.  See http://www.mozilla.org/bugs/ for bug
writing guidelines.  Thanks!

Marking verified invalid.

Comment 3

[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.

Closing all Evangelism bugs where no evangelism is needed because page has been 
fixed, site is internal to Netscape, report is a DUP, or bug report is no longer 
appropriate for evangelism for any other reason.
