Netscape 8.0.2 fixes broken IE XML rendering

Posted on Friday, June 17 2005 @ 18:40 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Netschape has finally released an update for Netscape 8 that fixes an issue that caused XML rendering in Internet Explorer to break. AOL blames the bug on poor IE documentation.

"After installing Netscape 8 the XML rendering capabilities of Internet Explorer no longer work," Massy wrote in the IEBlog. "That means that if you navigate in IE to an XML file such as an RSS feed or an XML file with an XSLT transformation applied then rather than seeing the data you are presented with a blank page."

Besides a fix for the IE XML rendering this version also includes some other small fixes. More details at BetaNews. Netscape 8.0.2 can be downloaded here
