Do I have to do anything for Netscape clients?

I am about to start production outside of the Intranet for the
Internet. I use Visual Studio .NET. Is there anything I have to set
on the IDE for the Netscape browsers? Last I checked there were still
quite a few, though, of course, not nearly like there used to be - no
offense, just trying to figure out what to do.

Thanks.

In theory, ASP.NET web controls will generate the correct HTML for any
browser they know about. I've seen remarks to the effect that some features
which would work in Netscape 7 don't get used because ASP.NET thinks it's
Netscape 4. This can apparently be corrected by editing the browsercaps
section of machine.config.
