In looking for yet another browser on which to maintain the Unicode/XML Tanach, I downloaded the free Netscape 8.0 browser to Windows 2000. This browser has the potentially valuable feature of allowing the user to view content in either Mozilla Firefox or IE6 rendering.

Alas, Netscape 8.0 not only failed to render the XML/XSLT transforms at the site with IE rendering selected, but disabled any viewing of the site on either the IE6 or Avant browser. Rendering continues to work on Netscape 8.0 in the Firefox rendering mode. A bug report has been made to Netscape. In the meantime, if you want to continue view the site on IE6 or Avant, don't install Netscape 8.0.
