[Wylug-help] Help with Netscape JavaScript Problem.

Hi,

This is probably a Linux Setup issue, not a JavaScript programming issue.

I am trying to use the ASDA online shopping service using Netscape 7.01 Web
Browser on my RedHat Linux 7.2 system at home, but
I get a JavaScript problem when trying to go through the virtual checkout.

I cannot send the exact JavaScript error message from the JavaScript Console
because I am sending this email from work.
Depressingly the online shopping service at ASDA works OK from my IE 5.0
Browser at work.

So, I guess this is one of the incompatability issues between Netscape and
IE.
I thought everything would be OK because the ASDA website states that it
should work with both IE 5.01 and Netscape 7.01 browsers, but they neglected
to mention which Operating System!

So, my question, is the JavaScript part of the Netscape a plugin, and can I
download a different javascript plugin to get my online shopping experience
working, or am I stuffed?

Any help appreciated.

Regards

Nick
