netscape loads https page, but...

[GeminiDaddy]

netscape 8.0 loads an https page, (it shows "done" at the bottom left) but the resulting page is blank - just a white page. I was able to load it successfully on other netscape and firefox installations on other machines. I scoured the settings, but can't find anything that will allow it to display, including toggling the browser display types.

If i try to display this https page purely in ie on this machine, there is no problem.

Is there a setting I'm missing in Netscape 8?

I would first try and upgrade to Netscape 8.1

http://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape8/english/8.1/windows/win32/nsb-setup.exe

If that doesn't work, I would uninstall it and reinstall 8.1 from sratch.

yes, that's definitely on deck of things to do, but i didn't want to have to if possible. It just seems that I shouldn't have to do that. - but thank you. I will try if else fails

If your browser only displays secure sites but not any non secured web sites (your browser is screwed) reinstall netscape buddy.

good luck with your issue.

Some people make things happen, some people watch things happen, while others wonder what happened.
