No, he meant that the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is not

That's why I have Netscape (my primary) and MSIE both loaded. Many of
the associations and organizations I belong to have web sites which
are MSIE weighted/coded. Netscape tends to scramble them. Although
slow, I'm on a dialup, Netscape worked fine with the map. What version
are you using? Perhaps that could make a difference.

Well, lets see.....: 0 )
-better to be a little off than locked away for being totally out of
it....
-better to be a little off than not there at all....
-better to be a little off... so the incoming misses ya... (of
course, only 3 miles ain't gonna help when the mushroom cloud begins
to form...)
When I was being shipped to Vietnam, we all looked for the base we
were headed for on a map posted in the personnel center.... Imagine
how secure we felt when we found the place.... NORTH of the DMZ.
Even the best maps can have errors... : 0 )
While it may not be Netscape friendly, it does appear to work well with
Netscape's brother, Mozilla 1.7.5.
Considering that the Mozilla Foundation's new product, Firefox, is
taking back the web from Internet Exploder, the web developers should
start to take notice of browsers other than IE.

Trying Firefox here in Linux and Windows. One thing that irks me is at some
web pages you can not "click" on a button. It will highlight, but nothing
happens when you click it. IE works every time??

I've heard more and more NS users recommend Firefox, now add two more.
The increasing IE-centricity of the Web is frustrating. Let the ones
how code solely for IE lose customers and users, I guess. I'm glad to
hear that Mozilla is gaining market share with Firefox. Someone needs to.
