Netscape 4.x is in general so broken that it is impossible to design for
it. Design your HTML so that it fails gracefully when CSS is not available
in the client and then use one of the tricks for withholding CSS from
Netscape 4.x. In particular, I ususally use
@import "styleheet.css";
instead of
because Netscape 4.x has a bug that prevents it from loading stylesheets
referenced this way. You can see an example on
.
The net result is that pages look gray and dull, but are still functional
in Netscape 4.x, and leaving you a lot more breathing room for doing clever
stuff in decent browsers that support CSS well and are not riddled with
bugs.
