Style Sheets and comment form
An issue came up with rendering of the comment entry form. It seems to be due to some bug or missing capabilities in older (4.72, 4.78) Netscape's CSS engine and some quirk in the style sheets of eg bek.antville.org: the entry fields are squashed vertically and are unusable. With "Enable Style Sheets" disabled, the form fields get rendered correctely.
Did other ants observe the same problem, maybe with other browsers or weblogs?
Any CSS experts around?

netscape 4.x is not able to style form input elements using the css property »border«.in fact it shows a border box but hides the textarea almost completely. the only solution is to hide these styles from ns4.x, for example via this hack:
/*/*/ border: 1px solid #000000; /* */
netscape 4.x wil ignore all css rules/declarations between /*/*/ and the next comment.

Thanks a lot for your comment. I'll go have a look how to use this to make antique browsers somewhat longer usable ;-)
