Web Developers,

I know this has nothing to do with PHP, but some bright minds out there might have run 
across it. It's about Netscape 6 mouseovers.

I've read elsewhere that Netscape 6 has problems with preloading images. I have 
confirmed this time and time again, but have not been able to come to any viable 
solutions. Nor have I been able to find a posted solution or a documented workaround 
anywhere on the web. Has anyone here found a workaround for this bug that will prevent 
Netscape from causing mouseover images (which were preloaded) to stop disappearing 
from the screen when you roll over them too quickly. They aren't just made invisible, 
they are actually gone.

I'm fine with the new DOM as it makes sense to start complying to the standards, it 
needs to be done. However, mouseovers are one of the most basic features of JavaScript 
that every site on the web uses so there really should be a way to successfully code 
mouseovers into a web page without worrying about them disappearing. Talk about a web 
site navigation nightmare.

I have like mostly everything about Netscape 6 except this little "feature" and I'm 
about to give up on the browser because of it. If anyone has found a way around this I 
would really appreciate knowing how you dealt with it.

Thanks,
Toby
