however that this web site is still fully HTML 2.0 compliant ie;
it is still viewable on the original CERN www browser!

| Web Browser |
Missing elements |
| Microsoft
Internet Explorer 5 or 6 |
None, this site is optimised for viewing by any fully
HTML 4.0 Transitional compliant web browser. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 4 |
Page takes a long time to load (no support for
one-pass HTML 4.0 tables) |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 3 |
Auto-highlighting hypertext links when the mouse moves
over them; no Cascading Style Sheet support and hence navigation bar
isn't in Helvetica (or any sans-serifed) font and body text doesn't
have leading of 25%; also there is no watermark as this requires style
sheets. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 2 |
As for MSIE 3 but also: "Loading page tables"
notification message to alert the user to a potential wait before the
page fully downloads; auto-highlighting hypertext links when the mouse
moves over them |
| Netscape Mozilla v0.9.9 |
Page watermark in wrong position (fault in CSS
support) |
| Konqueror (KDE 3.0) |
"Loading page tables" notification message
to alert the user to a potential wait before the page fully downloads
isn't invisible (not all CSS is implemented). Otherwise works well. |
| Opera 6.0 |
| Netscape Navigator
6 PR1 |
Navigation bar style (Helvetica) not applied; page
watermark in wrong position (fault in CSS support) |
| Netscape Navigator
4.x |
As for Navigator 6 but with corrupted fonts; watermark
isn't fixed; "Loading page tables" notification message to alert the
user to a potential wait before the page fully downloads;
auto-highlighting hypertext links when the mouse moves over them |
| Netscape Navigator 2 |
As for Navigator 4. You'd think they'd have got it
right by version 4, wouldn't you! |
| Original Netscape Navigator |
As for Navigator 4 but also none of the Javascript
stuff works or image maps. This doesn't affect much content mind you,
more natty things like countdown indicators and such and some
clickable images aren't clickable - however, there is always an
alternative link that can be clicked nearby |
| WebTV |
"Loading page tables" notification message to alert
the user to a potential wait before the page fully downloads;
auto-highlighting hypertext links when the mouse moves over them; page
looks very squashed horizontally as WebTV has very big text on a very
small screen. Still readable though. |
| Non tables-capable browser |
Black bar seperating navigation bar and page text;
"Loading page tables" notification message to alert the user to a
potential wait before the page fully downloads; auto-highlighting
hypertext links when the mouse moves over them; the navigation bar
appears as a set of links at the top of the page and all the page
formatting is missing |
| Lynx |
Seeing as Lynx doesn't output graphics and there is no
mouse, all the navigation links appear at the top, there is no page
formatting and of course, no images to click upon |
| Original CERN WWW browser |
Pretty much only the textual content of the site is
available. The site is still usuable though, but it can't be called
pleasant to use or view or even navigate - more due to the nacky
nature of the original browser. Try getting Lynx at least please! |
