But - explain this then - the GotDotNetMenuSource example does a browser  check and pumps out downlevel code to NN7.
(NN7's browser version  is Netscape5 ... the example mentioned pumps out downlevel code to NN for anything < 6)

So it appears that IE's display property doesn't work  in NN ( as it didn't used to ) - but it DOES.

So NN ARE trying to keep up but they're always going to be at last a version behind unless MS tell 'em what their doing.

I'm not having a go at anyone, and have gotton used to being in the middle of and sorting out the big boys browser war. In fact I used to redirect NN users to the IE homepage - now I do my best to accommodate (if it's not too much trouble).

NN support built in MathML (for scientists and the maths lot) as well as SVG. IE doesn't sem to care a toss about minorities even if their as big as the whole of the science world - and even if the actual ActiveX control  that enables MathML in the browser is made by the same people who make Words Equation Editior :: i.e. you'de have thought they'de have thrown it into IE seeing as they have been dealing with the folks (dessci.com) for years.

Same goes for SVG.

I know these things will HAVE to be supportd when the standards are standardised - but NN do it now - all respect to them.
