The only command I got to work was OpenURL and it works worse than it used
to (doesn't return the index number of the result window). Scripting
Netscape 6 is really an impossibility.

While the browser itself does CSS and HTML far better than it used to,
Netscape 6 has terrible Mac OS integration. Poor Drag & Drop support (try
dragging links to your favorites bar), worse scriptability, and its
increased memory needs, as well as its processor intensity make me stay with
its competitors.

In terms of scripting, the other browsers are not much better, I know, but
at least their limited implementation works.

Eric.
