Netscape 4.7x on Solaris bug

[websmith99]

Has anyone ever run across this scenario before when testing your application using Netscape 4.7x on Solaris platform?

I have on a JSP page the standard HTML to generate the "browse" button to launch the "browse" dialog box where you can choose a file in the directory stucture: <input type="file" name="myfile" size="40">. it is located within a <form>. The problem is that, on solaris only, the "browse" dialog box will stay open and not do anything when you press the "OK", "Filter", or "Cancel" buttons. All other browser / operating system combinations have no problem.

A number of our corporate customers use this platform.
Any tips on what might be causing this are greatly appreciated.

I would have to say poor software (netscape, not yours). Is it a requirement to code for 4.7x? Is that what your client uses? If not you should see the outcome on different browsers, or just slightly different versions of netscape. You may consider consulting them, they may have an answer for you. Good luck, coding around other peoples mistakes is a pain in the rear ain't it?
