The following HTML/javascript document illustrates a question I have with client-side Macintosh users. The <div ID="NavBarDiv"> does not load using any of my IE or NN-compatible commands.
Does Macintosh support an equivalent command?
How do I detect Macintosh users?
On a Macintosh computer, notice that the website
www.finehomemadesoap.com does not have a navigation bar, because I generate HTML for the navigation bar, and then load it into the <div> block using the script shown below.
Thanks, Daniel

Can Macintosh load <div>?
