Nope, it's not just Netscape -- it's broken on MSIE 5.5 as well.
So, like, I hate to be totally rude and curt, but I don't know how to get
the point across -- isn't there someone at LD whose job it is to schedule
usability testing and make sure that things actually work? If not, why not?
Does LD expect us, the consumer, to do all its usability testing for it, for
free? I don't think most people mind too much so long as it's a two-way
street, but I get the feeling LD isn't really commited to that. So when
there's no acknowledgment or thanks, it feels like a thankless job.
