Hi,

I have read that Netscape 2 and IE3, even though they support the <script> tag, do not ignore the <noscript> tag, the result being that content of both <script> and the <noscript> tags are displayed. Now, my question is, does any one know what other browsers behave that way? ie. does Netscape 3 also display the contents of both the tags? how do I proceed in such cases?

thanks
 
why on earth would you compensate for such an old browser? you should hardly be concerned even with version 4 browsers. no modern browser has these limitations. =========================================================

vishal,

You can actually use the html comment tags inside your scripts if you really have to support those browsers. However as jemminger pointed out it's total nonsense to try to support those browsers.

PS Everyone : i was away for a little less than a week and just found a great deal on a trip to Egypt! Less than half the price! So i'll be back in a bit more than a week! Gary Haran
