Aaron,

Recruiting, eh? Stanford rejected my application for graduate school a few
months ago. I didn't really want to go there anyway. Hmpf.

Without even looking at it, I'd guess that you're looking at a problem with
your <form> tags. Netscape (unlike IE) does not display any form elements
unless they are actually in a well-formed* form.

Jonathan.

* Pun intended.

Subject: [thelist] Form fields not displaying in 4.7


I was recently asked to look at the following page and figure out why the
form fields do not display in NS 4.7

http://wesley.stanford.edu/cmc/Recruiters/Forms/FocrCAREERreq.html

Note:  Please, no grief about the crappy HTML and design.  I had nothing to
do with developing this monstrosity.

I just can't figure out what Netscape 4.7's deal is.  My experience has
always been that if NS doesn't like something, like and open <td>, it
doesn't display the page at all.

Does anyone have any ideas?

TIA,
Aaron
