Hello, Some websites, when visited in Mozilla, get a 404 (Not found). But these sites can be found easily by Netscape 4 and MSIE 5. Here is a list of sites I have been unable to reach in Mozilla: http://exotrip.virtualave.net/ http://gnutella.wego.com/ http://www.xml.com/
on linux 2000-061608, first site gave me an index heading. -- Second site an error, but in html: "Unable to Locate Group Your destination group could not be determined You clicked a link to a WeGo.com charter group which could not be correctly determined. This problem could be caused by an incorrect link or if you are using an older version of the Netscape or Microsoft browsers." -- Third site was a two-word page stating: "REFER TO:"
Tested with Build # 2000061708 on Win 98 SE Also tested with NN 4.72 and IE 5.0 All 3 sites work correctally with the legacy browsers With Mozilla I did not get the 404 error. I got the same errors using Win 98 as RKAa got using Linux. sugest keyword 4xp be added
Marking bug as confirmed but don't see the 404 error (my probelms were the same as RKA's. Windows 95, build 2000061808. These errors may really be seperare bugs, but not sure. I looked, but did not see any dupes. I am suggesting nsbeta2 as one of the sites with a probelm is xml.com. With all the talk about XML we don't want to have a problem there that would be embarrassing! Is XML.com a top100 site? http://exotrip.virtualave.net/ gives the Index heading http://gnutella.wego.com/ gives "Unable to Locate Group" "Your destination group could not be determined" http://www.xml.com/ just gives "REFER TO: "
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Keywords: 4xp, nsbeta2
Marking nsbeta2+ given the high profile of the sites listed. We need to get more information on the problem, and if at that time the problem seems less critical, we can reevaluate.
