Q:
Do you follow NetScape extensions?
A:
We are working on adding support for Netscape extensions on an ongoing basis. In fact, many of the Netscape extensions are already supported by OmniWeb.
NetScape continues to add new features regularly, so we will be taking them on a case by case basis. Some NetScape features do not adhere to the HTML paradigm, and those we may avoid if they are not high priorities for our customers, but certainly we plan on implementing the NetScape features that make sense, such as centering pictures and text.
Note that support for some of the extensions are not possible as long as we are using the NEXTSTEP text object. While support for these extensions is an eventual goal, it will require a *very* substantial engineering effort.
If there are specific extensions about which you have questions, please feel free to write us at omniweb@lighthouse.com.
