Hubbard" Sender: owner-hackers@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I don't visit any pages with blinking text in them, so I can't verify it.. :-) Send me a URL where this happens and I'll give it a look. I certainly haven't noticed anything like this myself. BTW, has anyone looked at some of the new features in 2.0b2? The scripting features and the "frames" look *really* promising. I went through their little "recruitment service" demo and was pretty impressed. These people are going to take over the world. I want some stock! :-) Jordan > Is this another FreeBSD-emulating-BSDI bug with Netscape 2.0b2: > > Any graphic that is supposed to be updated regularly (blinking cursor, > animated Netscape icon, or blinking tags in text) will not update when I > run Netscape 2.0b2 in FreeBSD...
