Browser Compatibility: Note to Netscape 4.x users

Netscape 4.x is fundamentally and irredeemably broken. This site does not display or function correctly in Netscape versions prior to 6, despite the fact that every page in this site adheres strictly to the World Wide Web Consortium's HTML 4.01 specification. Netscape versions 4.x and below are not standards-compliant; this noncompliance is the source of the problems that Netscape users will experience with this site. I recommend that current users of Netscape 4.x or below switch to Mozilla or one of its derivatives (such as current versions of Netscape). Below is a partial list of standards-compliant browsers that can be used to display this site:

Mozilla
An open source web browser, Mozilla is available for Windows, MacOS, BeOS, Linux and other UNIX variants. It is also the basis for the commercial Netscape browser.
Netscape 7.0
Based on the open source Mozilla codebase, Netscape 7.0 is a commercial browser available for Windows, MacOS, and Linux.
Opera
Opera is a popular commercial browser available for Windows, Linux, MacOS, SymbianOS, BeOS, QNX, and OS/2.
Internet Explorer
While not quite standards-compliant, Microsoft's browser will display most HTML specification-compliant code correctly. IE 6 is available for Windows platforms. Earlier versions are available for MacOS and some commercial Unices.
Chimera
Chimera is a Mozilla-based browser for MacOS.
Konqueror
Konqueror is an open source web browser and file manager for UNIX.
Lynks
Lynx is a text-only browser available for many different platforms.
