OCLC Support for NS4.x to end

[Dan Lester]

No, I don't want to start any more browser wars. And, I don't know if
they'll support anything besides IE.  But this does seem to be an
indication of the continuing difficulty of supporting multiple
browsers.

OCLC plans to end OCLC Connexion support for Netscape 4.x on January 19,
2003.  At that time, Connexion users, including CatExpress and WebDewey
users, will no longer be able to log on using Netscape 4.x.  If you are
accessing Connexion via one of these older version browsers, please upgrade
to a higher version as soon as possible. Ending support of Netscape 4.x will
enable quicker development of enhancements to the Connexion service because
additional programming has often been necessary to support these older
versions of Netscape.  Since special coding to accommodate for Netscape 4.x
will no longer be needed, OCLC will be able to add new and better features
to the system.  In addition, ending support of Netscape 4.x will eliminate
the system problems that users often experience when using one of these
older versions of Netscape.
