Netscape 4.7 Javascript problem

[SamCKayak]

I use the script below to control the maximum-width of a table. It works fine in IE and Netscape 7.1

/* Restrict growth of element on very-wide displays */

function resizeBox(){
sObj = document.getElementById("container&quot
if ( sObj ) {
if(document.body.clientWidth) (document.body.clientWidth>1024) ? sObj.style.width = "955px" : sObj.style.width = "100%"
}
}

window.onload = resizeBox;
window.onresize = resizeBox;

--------------------------------------

<table id=&quot;container&quot;>


In Netscape 4.7, no error appears, and I belive the JavaScript is running correctly. But it changes the TABLE element's style so the width is held to 1024 pixels.

It's like a no-op in Netscape 4.7.

Is there some other style or element attribute that I should try?

Change:

if(document.body.clientWidth) (document.body.clientWidth>1024) ? sObj.style.width = "955px" :  sObj.style.width = "100%"

to:

if (document.body.clientWidth) sObj.style.width =(document.body.clientWidth > 1024) ? "955" : "100%"

and see how that works.
Also check the value of [tt]document.body.clientWidth[/tt] in NS4.7 with:

window.alert("client width = " + document.body.clientWidth);

Hope that helps.

Sorry, missed the [tt]px[/tt] off the [tt]995[/tt] in my alternative code.

i don't think NS4 knows the DOM method getElementById()
