Thanks for spotting this bug, Eric. It's a Netscape quirk that can be
avoided, and it should be fixed soon.

For the curious, the quirk is that Netscape sometimes treats style tags like
script tags -- they were implemented around the same time, so I guess the
code is curiously intertwined. Technically style tags aren't supposed to
have SRC attributes, even though many browsers accept them -- and since
there are other more universal ways of referencing external stylesheets,
we'll probably just use one of those and get the problem fixed. I'll post
again when the problem is gone.

Thanks again,

This is not a JavaScript effort per se. The cascading style sheet
specification is being interpreted as if it were a script instead.

This is wierd. It is as if the Solaris is getting served this:

      <script type="text/css" src="/styles/navigation.css"></script>

instead of this:

      <style type="text/css" src="/styles/navigation.css"></style>

Either that, or the Sun implementation is goofed up. It's possible that
shop.lego.com is responding to the user agent and serving different content
for Solaris, and the content has this typo. Eric, if it is possible, you may
want to 'view source' from shop.lego.com and see what source the Sun is
getting.

Thanks for looking atthis, Cary.
I'm getting:

<!-- Start topnav -->
<style type="text/css" src="/styles/navigation.css"></style>
