In Netscape 4.79 on x86 Solaris, the thread comes up, and almost immediately disappears. When I scroll down the resulting window, it's blank except for one line that says, "Quick Reply".

I apologise if this has been posted before, but, well, I couldn't read any threads to look for it!:eek:

No surprise, I doubt Zuni supports netscape 4, nor should he. Web standards change over time, you shouldn't expect a 5 year old browser to work correctly.

Are you able to view the threads if Quick Reply is not enabled?

I seem to be able to view threads if I log out. WTF is quick reply? I can't find an option for it anywhere in my profile settings.

FWIW, I just tried it in 4.78 on Solaris 2.6 / Sparc. I have quick-reply enabled and while it doesn't format quite right, the entire thread displayed...

We are very close to discontinuing support for netscape 4 due to the fact its well beyond 3 versions old now. Really, it is time to upgrade there are plenty of choices for something more modern :)

We will have a peek into this issue if we have time, no promises

THere actually aren't a whole heck of a lot of browser choices, at least in my case. It's got 112MB and 4x55MHz processors, but it's still taxed running 4.78. Not that I ever view the forums from my Sun...it's just for messing around.
