I know that NetScape doesn't support as much JavaScript and CSS as IE4+, but I still try because some people still use the browser (though if you've seen what a lemon NS6 is...). I think one of the coolest things about JS and IE5 is the document.all[object].style.cssText='CSS:text;'; You can use this to change just about any property of any object in the html, but I haven't been able to find any near equivalent bit of script that works for NetScape (I know that document.all is invalid under NetScape.) Specifically I'm interested in using DHTML to change a cell's border and background color (no problem with IE5, but a true frustration under NetScape).
