Unclear problem with Netscape 4.7* reading web page built with Joomla1.0

[francis59]

Hi all,
the following web page http://www.abcmilano.net has been created using Joomla 1.0.

That page can be well read by every browser (IE, Firefox, Netscape7, etc.) except than with Netscape 4.7 (english version) and Netscape 4.51 (italian version).

Using Netscape 4.77 -for instance- the browser stops and gives the following error:
JavaScript error: type 'javascript:' into location for details

Typing "javascript:" into the address bar the following message into pop up window appears:
JavaScript Error:
http://download.abcmilano.net/cms/index.php, line 148:
illegal character.

Using Netscape 4.51 (italian version) the browser stops and displays the same error, but no further action is possible and the netscape process must be killed using the process manager.

Which is in your opinion the problem?
Thanks

Which is in your opinion the problem?

Ignore it. First, Netscape 4.5 never worked, 4.7 was not much better. Second, nobody uses Netscape 4 (I don't have any Netscape 4 user on my logfiles). Third, if there should be a NS4 user anyway, he/she knows about the browser defects. (Well, you asked for my opinion).

I think I would agree with Nibra, supporting a browser that old is a little unrealistic.  I would not consider this a bug but I am willing to hear other people's comments on this before I close it.
