They don't work with NN 4.76 either... bloody annoying, as it's the only browser on a lot of unixes.

works fine in Opera 5.12... isn't that available for Unix?

I don't think it's a case of bad code - more a case of good code that wont run on a browser that doesn't support it properly.

Its not just you. I am forced to use IE5 because of this, and I'd much prefer to use Mozilla. It does not work on Opera 4.02 either.

Doesn't work on Konqueror either (with Javascript enabled) but I hate the drop down menus anyway so it's win-win for me.

The joys of cross browser support with no staff

Perhaps if we asked in the unix forum for help (we dont have *nix here so its hard to test).

I think its a case of philsophy as to whats good code and bad. that code is to "standards" but doesnt seem to be universally accepted

Variables dont
Constants arent
Standards wont

Assuming you can get the Flash problem sorted on the other thing, how about making the drop down menu a flash menu? It wouldn't take up more then 1-2k (I guess).
