I have just tested this page on web browsers I have on my Windows 95 computer, which I usually no longer use. It worked perfectly for Netscape 6.2, Internet Explorer, and Lynx. Lynx does not support JavaScript or CSS, but this page did degrade gracefully on Lynx. The only browser that did not work well was Netscape Communicator. Some of the JavaScript worked, and some didn't. Fortunately, part of what didn't work was the ability to hide parts of the page. So at least someone using this browser could view the entire content of the page. But links did not work, the CSS worked incompletely, and, as mentioned, text could not be hidden. I saw one error I know how to fix. I need to place a JavaScript comment before I end the HTML comment that encloses the JavaScript. But I can't fix anything until I get back to my other computer, since my ftp program on this one doesn't have the right information for logging onto chessvariants.org. As for Netscape Communicator, I think the main problem is that it uses a different DOM than Gecko. So, with information on the old Netscape DOM, I might be able to fix it by providing alternate code for Netscape Communicator. But it might not be worth the trouble. Even the Netscape homepage wasn't working well with this program, and I doubt it is still in much use, given that Windows 95 users can upgrade to Netscape 6.
