rdocists-
when i use rdoc, or look at someone elses, under netscape 4.7x running linux
6.2, 7.0, or 7.2 the navigation frame lists (files, classes, methods) appear
in an overlapping fashion where
one
two
three
are all almost atop each other. i’ve put in a bug report but wondering what i
can do in the mean time?
more generally, i get this all the time netscape… anyone knowing the answer
will get… uhhh. a beer. from me.

While I can’t duplicate your problem (the Imlib2-Ruby documentation
looks ugly as hell in Netscape 4.7, but the text isn’t overlapping),
I’ll bet Netscape is either ignoring or incorrectly parsing the
line-height directive in the rdoc-style.css file. Try commenting all
the instances of it out (or removing them), and see if the text still
overlaps.

Use a browser with working CSS support (eg Konqueror, Opera, Galeon,
Mozilla, etc), or use a text-mode browser such as links to view the
documentation (yes, I do mean links, not lynx).

The answer is Netscape 4.x has broken CSS support.

There’s an easy way to work around it though-- just put all CSS into
an external file, and use the CSS ‘@import’ directive to get it into
your document. Netscape 4.x doesn’t understand that directive, so
doesn’t include CSS. Of course, you can get fancy, and put only the
bits it can’t handle in the external file, but that’s probably too
much work.
