Summary of Change
Netscape 7.0 has replaced Netscape Communicator 4.79 on HP-UX 11i v2. Mozilla is the
default browser.
Impact
Netscape 7 and Netscape Communicator are very similar. Although you will notice some
differences in the interface, the basic functionality is the same.
Compatibility
Multi-media plug-in support for these browsers is slightly different than for Netscape
Communicator 4.7x. Please see www.hp.com/go/netscape_plugins for details.
Performance
The first time it is started, Netscape 7 will be slower than Netscape Communicator
because it's creating a profile. After that, it should come up just as quickly.
Documentation
The documentation for Netscape 7 is included in the Help menu of the product itself.
README files are also included in the bundle.
Also see www.hp.com/go/netscape for more information.
Obsolescence
Netscape 7 and Communicator will continue to be distributed for HP-UX through
10/2005. No defect fixes will be provided during this time, though all defects will be
addressed in the Mozilla product, which is the upgrade for Netscape.
