Off-By-One.
This incredibly small browser (fits on and can be run from a floppy disk) does not
support Javascript, CSS or frames of any kind. Considering it's small size and
lack of support for many standard technologies, it is surprisingly slow in loading
and displaying a page - possibly the slowest browser we have tested.
As this site makes use of CSS for the visual layout, OB1 will not display pages
as intended. However, all pages should be readable.
Netscape.
Netscape appeared to have it's own way of rendering pages and it's own idea of
Javascript. Also, earlier versions did not fully support CSS and had issues with
nested areas and text.
Some versions of Netscape had real issues using CSS to put borders around certain
elements. Some elements could not have a border, other's could - but Netscape
may take a while to think about it.
When alignment is set using CSS, Netscape had a habit of rendering some in-line
elements as block elements. This will appear as an extra line between a paragraph
heading and it's content.
All reasonable efforts are made to ensure that these issues are avoided, but there
may be occasions when some versions of Netscape suddenly change the font within
a page or is slow loading or displaying the page.
Lynx.
Lynx is a text based browser, so problems are to be expected when trying to view
sites designed for standard browsers. Obvious problems include positioning of
page sections, no graphics and no text formatting.
Lynx also does not appear to recognize the DIV element, certainly not as a block
element. Where the DIV element is used, text will continue on the same line - so
some words may appear to run together without a space between them. Also, as the
site was designed for standard browsers, the text displayed in place of some graphic
or graphic links may be confusing in content or position.
Lynx users may find that the mobile sites display better. Due to mobile limitations,
there are fewer pages on the mobile browser sites.
