WHAT'S NEW in Netscape Navigator Gold Personal Edition 3.0
* Netscape Navigator Gold Personal Edition now includes
Netscape Navigator Gold v. 3.0 Beta 5.
* You can now create and publish your own web pages by setting up
a Concentric test account using the Netscape Registration server.
TIP: when you create a web page and want to put it up on your
homepage, name it: index.html if you can. That way, it will come up
automatically when you browse your default publish location.
* Improved connection reliability.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Windows 95:
* Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive. An interactive shell
will begin automatically.
* Click the "Install Personal Edition" icon.
Windows 3.1:
* Insert your CD. From the Program Manager, select File | Run.
Enter the command
E:\install.exe
If your CD-ROM is not installed on drive E:\, type the letter
of your CD-ROM drive instead of E:\.
* The interactive shell will begin.
* Click the "Install Personal Edition" icon.
______________________________________________________________________
Known Problems in the Shell:
* You must have at least a 256 color display to use the shell. If
you do not have a 256 color display, you may still install Netscape
Personal Edition:
From the Windows 3.1 Program Manager, select File | Run. Under
Windows 95, select the Start Menu | Run. Enter the command:
E:\PEINSTL\SETUP.EXE
If your CD-ROM is not installed on drive E:\, type the letter of
your CD-ROM drive instead of E:\.
* When you begin the shell, the shell may not display colors properly.
The shell may also affect colors in other applications. Use the
ALT-TAB key combination to move between applications. Colors
should then be displayed properly.
* When you install Plug-Ins, the Shell will ask you which version of
Windows you are using.
______________________________________________________________________
KNOWN PROBLEMS
* If your Internet service provider has given you a publishing URL
that has a tilde (~) in it, that means it is a relative path. Netscape
Gold does not support the tilde character, so when you enter your
Publishing URL in the Account Setup Wizard for "I already have
a Service Provider" account path, substitute the tilde character and
your name with a period. For example, if your FTP URL is:
ftp://myname@ftp.someplace.com/~myname/public_html
When you enter it into the Account Setup Wizard, you need to enter it as:
ftp://myname@ftp.someplace.com/./public_html
instead. This will allow the information to get stored into Gold
correctly.
