[thelist] Netscape Communicator oddity

[Judi Taylor]

Greetings Evolters!

I have a question regarding odd behavior that I've noticed in trying to get
a site to work with Netscape Navigator 4.08. Yes, I know that 4.08 is an
extremely low end browser, however, I do need to make sure that it can use
the site....some of the rural areas don't go with the 'latest and
greatest.'

Anyway, onto the quandary:

First problem is that I have a javascript/dhtml menu that I'm utilizing
(downloaded from
http://www.jessett.com/web_sites/dhtml/create_dhtml_menu.shtml ). Something
in this javascript (I'm guessing here as I'm not a javascripter - more of a
javascript hacker - and only somewhat at best) is causing the page to
continually reload, effectively making the page/site unusable.

The oddity that I've noticed, other than the above problem, is when I go to
View Source, it seems that every other character (yes, it loads the whole
page even after you hit "Stop") is the funky square box thingie that I
associate with either a control character, or some other character that the
system/browser is unable to interpret.

I'm including a bit of the javascript code (what I think may be the
culprit) from the nav.js file...any help/insight/solution would be greatly
appreciated.
=======================================
var activeSub=0;
var SubNum=0;

function reDo(){ window.location.reload() }
    window.onresize = reDo;

function init(){
    	//  alert ("Running Init");
          if (document.layers) {
                      //  alert ("Running Netscape 4");
                        layerRef="document.layers";
                        styleSwitch="";
                        visibleVar="show";
			screenSize = window.innerWidth;
			what ="ns4";
=======================================
The url to thw page/site that I'm having this problem with is:
