Of course this doesn't work. Now, now, there. We must all keep a civil tongue in our head. You get more flies with honey than vinegar, remember. (If you want flies.) Suffer fools gladly, at least. The URL you want is: http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/deploymt/options.htm And of course you have to be connected to see it. Why Netscape in their Corporate Wisdom didn't think it best to make this a local file, I'll never understand, but that's the way it is.

It *DID* work, atleast in previous versions of Netscape. Next time somebody wants help in this group, I just won't respond. How's that sound? I'm sure you'd love that, wouldn't you? It would be great if more people stuck their heads up their asses like yourself and flamed people for attempting to help others.
