If you're a Netscape user who has gone through this tutorial, at
some point you might have resized your browser just to get a better look at
things. Suddenly there was a horrible flash and all your wonderful positioning
information was gone and your page looked not unlike jodi.org.
This is a known bug in Netscape 4.0. The solution to this problem?
Well, the low-tech way would be to place a little reminder on your page that
if Netscape users resize their browsers, they'll need to reload the page.
Or you could do it programmatically like thus:
<script>
if (document.layers) {
window.onResize = reloadIt;
}
function reloadIt() {
document.location = document.location;
}
</script>
This will work in most cases. (Occasionally, however, Netscape will be thrown
into an endlessly repeating cycle of reloading the document.)
