O B J E C T | D E T E C T I O N>>LOAD XML into Netscape

[J Haag]

The topic of cross browser dynamic design is a hot one! I have implemented
an example(from http://www.xs4all.nl/~ppk/js/index.html?/~ppk/js/support.html)
in reference
to loading xml into dhtml after using the object detection. However, I can't
figure out why it won't load into netscape. I'm sure there is a problem
somewhere using the DOM, but I could be wrong.
It is an excellent example of using XML + dhtml layers to seperate
content from presentation (except in netscrape).Please HELP! I am not concerned
with
backward compatability (http://www.alistapart.com/stories/tohell/). When
you have time, please
look at the following examples:



http://www.tempohomes.net/xml/object_detect1.html

http://www.tempohomes.net/xml/object_detect2.html


The root with xml source file:

http://www.tempohomes.net/xml


Thanks in advance for you support.

I've heard that although NetScape supports XML now, it does not do so like
Internet Explorer 5.0 up. If you are going to do cross-browser support,
it's a whole lot easier to go thinner and use something like ASP.NET, which
takes into account most of the differences between browsers, even several
versions back.
