Re: CSS and Various Browsers
No, Netscape 4.7 doesn't support CSS very well. It usually requires lots of
extra effort to keep things looking decent in that browser, unfortunately.
This site has lots of good info on CSS and NN4: [url]http://www.mako4css.com[/url]
Hope that helps.

doesn't like class names that include the underscore. Also, you've got
clip: rect( )
in your stylesheet. Like that it's completely meaningless to any browser,
but it may also be giving N4 a particularly hard time.
Since you're using tables to create your page, you need to understand the
particular difficulties N4 has with font inheritance:

No. It doesn't. It support JSS (Javascript Style Sheets) natively. Netscape
had to create a CSS to JSS translator for NN4 which only allows certain
aspects of CSS to work in it.
The easiest solution is to just give NN4 users a basic, simply CSS file. The
page won't look as pretty, but it will be readable:

I went to the site and found the info. They instructed me to link two style sheets since
NN4.7 does not regognize the @import. I must be doing something wrong because it's
not working. I'm new to CSS can you take a look at the attached code? Thanks.

P@tty *TWB* #9 Re: CSS and Various Browsers
Mdream -- You have the style sheet "description.css" linked two different
times - once with the <link> tag, and then again with the @import directive.
Delete this one:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../styles/description.css" type="text/css">
Now how is it working?

underscores legal, as Eric Meyer explains here:

Still, the best advice is: no underscores and no hyphens in class and id
names.
