I'd appreciate it if someone else would try:

See if it works right for you. Don't just view the default strip, use the drop box to select a few older ones.

For me, the default strip loads, but the select form calls a js routine, and apparently that doesn't work quite right. When I select an older strip, the link loads an error graphic saying "Sorry, this image is currently unavailable."

If I right-click on that "Sorry" image and load it in a new window, then reload that window, I get the correct strip -- usually. Once it's in the cache, then it works fine ever after from the form on the original page.

What's puzzling is that the link above works just great with Netscape 4.08. (I can't try it in IE because I don't have it loaded on this machine.)

I've tried changing the user agent string in KM -- no dice.

The link's behavior with Off by One and Act 10 is similar to that with KM, which leads me to believe that it's the site that's broken, not the browser. Still, why does it work in an old Netscape and not in a new Mozilla-flavored browser?

Any thoughts?
Thanks,

David

I can confirm K-M's behavior on this URL as David explains.
Also with Netscape 4.79 all comics from earlier dates come up correctly.

David,

A lot of old Javascript will work in older browsers, like Netscape 4.x, and not current browsers like IE6 and Mozilla. Not sure if this is the case. I'll have to test it out first.

With Opera 6.01 no problems.

Does not work with Mozilla 0.9.9
Does work with Netscape 4.78
Does work with IE 6.0 (yuck) :-/
