This site is using tons of javascipt in the top frame, plus it looks like its
browser dection is seeing mozilla as ns4, this is a problem with lots of
javascript since mozilla has moved to being only w3c complaint.

The main problem seems to be that the site is using the wrong code to hide the
loading div in nav.html
should be: document.getElementById('loadingDiv').style.visibility='hidden';

http://web01.fureai.or.jp/~tato/ver5/setVisibility.htm
shows the proper way to show hide js elements, also has proper browser dection
using checking browser methods not version strings

Sending to evangelism. The site uses NS4 and IE-only methods. It also has
improper browser detection. [e-mail], could you please use the
following tool to tell the webmaster of the newbalance site that his pages do
not work with standards-compliant browsers?
