41765 - rasterman.com - [LAYER]Website will not Load in Build;2000060221

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P3)

Description

[sam williams]

First, it was enlightenment.org, then you guys got that fixed quite nicely, then
rasters partner in crime changes his site in such a way that netscape seems to
be the only browser I've found that loads it properly. IE5 fails miserably.

Mozilla, just displays a blank brown tinted screen. It is repeatable.

I'm running Mozilla under SuSE 6.3.

Confirmed with 2000-06-06-08 on Linux.
The page uses layers. Does mozilla support that?

Comment 2

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

INVALID. LAYER, ILAYER, document.layers[] not supported in Gecko/Nav5.
Notified reporter and site owner via template at
http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/fixit/layer.html
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.

verified, layer bugs are invalid

Comment 4

[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.

Reassigning Evangelism bugs to me, the component's new owner.  I would like to 
take this opportunity to thank [e-mail] for all of his dedication, 
contributions, and hard work, and wish him luck at his new job.  Thanks, nobody.

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Removing the evangwanted keyword from 49 evangilizm bugs that also 
have the evangelized keyword. Having both of these keywords on a bug 
makes it really hard to do a query for all open evangilizm bugs that are 
evangwanted. Sorry for the spam.

Comment 9

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Sorry about this problem. I somehow screwed up the keyword changes. 
Sorry about this spam.

Arun, I'm giving you all the Linux bugs. If these bugs can be confirmed for
other OS's please (someone) change the Platform/OS to All/All and reassign to
the default Evangelism Component Owner.

Comment 13

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

All Evangelism Bugs are now in the Product Tech Evangelism. See bug 86997 for
details.

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

Arun, I am taking your Linux bugs minus banks. Hope you don't mind.
