<div class="IPBDescription">is it just mozilla or ...?</div> Hello Team,
it seems like that since some day in the near past the website just "hangs" when opened with mozilla 1.5.
I have not checked the html, nor did i try to see if other mozillas are affected as well, but if someone would look into this...

If there is any actual java (not javascript) it takes awhile to load it for some reason.
Actually, the container website (with the frameset info) loads fine. It loads up the left side flash menu fine and the top image works to. Unfortunately, it doesn't load the "NEWS" page <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/news.html' target='_blank'>http://www.natural-selection.org/news.html</a> and instead renders it as a blank, white page. If you click on any of the other pages, like "ABOUT" or "DOWNLOAD", it works. However, when you click on "NEWS", it shows the white page again. I also tried opening just the <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/news.html' target='_blank'>http://www.natural-selection.org/news.html</a> to see if it was a frame issue but the problem persists.
However, if I save the news.html file to local disk and open it, it <b><span style='color:red'>works perfectly fine</span></b> and renders exactly as expect! This means the ns.com server is incorrectly reporting the mime type (or some other pertinent piece of info) when sending the news.html page.
P.S. I have Java 1.4.2_01 and Javascript enabled (but disabling Javascript doesn't fix anything).

Loads fine for me.. possibly update shockwave? Is that what the side menu is done in?
Speaking of, does anyone know where that website is that was something along the lines of: 'you know you're a loser when...' and one of 'em was 'you use an 'alternative' internet browser. It might not work with 80% of sites out there, but who cares, because EVERYONE should know Opera is better then IE in EVERY WAY!'
I've been looking for that page for a while.. I thought it was Maddox but I didn't see it on his site.
I remember Opera used to totally **** suck. You couldn't view pages with Flash, or anything besides HTML, more or less... Besides, what do these other browsers do, access a different internet then IE? I've never understood why people waste their HD space on 'alternative browsers'... geez get the Google toolbar and I'm set.
Gee I have tabbed browsing too... it's called the start bar and alt-tabbing <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

didnt mozilla come before IE? making IE the alternate browser?
You're thinking of Netscape. Yes, IE used to be the alternative to Netscape and MS won (obviously <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)
The new netscape = Mozilla (well kind of), Old netscape = Mosiac(?)
The main reason I use it is for the blocking of popups and nasty virus's from bad websites. Other than that I've come to like the product more as a whole due to the fact it's more effiencent overall.
Why not take something that's better, and most importantly, FREE?

But easter eggs in old IE's used to make references to Mozilla. Im not sure :/
edit: the oldest reference I found was in ie 4.0 ...thats waaay too late <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
the egg itself was typing 'about:mozilla' (no quotes) in the address bar. This easter egg actually works from ie 4.0 onward...for all ie/netscape/mozilla/firebird browsers...give it a go!
I guess I was thinking of the whole mosaic->netscape->mozilla thing that bo selecta said.
Anyway - the front page works fine for me - Moz Firebird .7 - but looks <b>ugly</b> with that big empty black frame on the right side.
I'm not even gonna start arguing about browsers, other then to say I've used most of the ones out there.. that text based one, opera, netscape, ie, some other one I can't remember, and finally mozilla, IMO mozilla is still the best.. I don't like M$ in general, and would much rather use another os, which will happen as soon as I transfer my other hd over to this comp, dual boot, and get wine working for ns <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Btw: OpenOffice.org 1.1.0 is a free alternative to office, and it is backwards compatible with office (and works better IMO)
Didn't Netscape start out as Netscape Mosaic? I don't think I got that wrong, I even have an old beta of that lying around on my HD.
..
Last time I used Open office it was very, very slow. How's the performance nowadays?
1.1.0 Can now export to PDF's! Yay!
