This code to move image does not work in Netscape

The following code works OK in IE 6.0 but does not work in Netscape 7.
The image does not shift when one scrolls down but stays stationary in
Netscape.

Please help

Thank you
John

function moveImage(e){ //shift image according to scroll
if ((platform == "Win" ) && (IE)){ //Internet Explorer
if (document.all.d ivStayTopLeft){
var diffY = document.body.s crollTop;
var divPos = document.all.he aderpos.offsetT op;
var spanPos = document.all.di vStayTopLeft.of fsetTop;
var imageHeight = document.all.he aderpos.clientH eight;
var posDisclaimer = 4000;
var posDivBottom, maxDivPos, newDivPos;
posDivBottom = divPos + imageHeight + spanPos;
maxDivPos = posDisclaimer - imageHeight - divPos + 20;
newDivPos = diffY - divPos;
document.all.di vStayTopLeft.st yle.pixelTop -=
document.all.di vStayTopLeft.st yle.pixelTop;
if (diffY > divPos) {
if (maxDivPos > newDivPos)
document.all.di vStayTopLeft.st yle.posTop += newDivPos;
else document.all.di vStayTopLeft.st yle.posTop +=
maxDivPos;
}
}
}
else { //other browsers
if (document.getEl ementByID("divS tayTopLeft")){
var diffY = window.pageYOff set;
var divPos = document.getEle mentByID("heade rpos").offsetTo p;
var spanPos =
document.getEle mentByID("divSt ayTopLeft").off setTop;
var imageHeight =
document.getEle mentByID("heade rpos").clientHe ight;
var posDisclaimer = 4000;
var posDivBottom, maxDivPos, newDivPos;
posDivBottom = divPos + imageHeight + spanPos;
maxDivPos = posDisclaimer - imageHeight - divPos + 20;
newDivPos = diffY - divPos;
document.getEle mentByID("divSt ayTopLeft").sty le.pixelTop -=
document.getEle mentByID("divSt ayTopLeft").sty le.pixelTop;

You should do feature detection, not browser detection, as
IE will not necessarily work with your code either.
According to the Mozilla site, "offsetTop" is DOM level 0,
which means (AFAIK) that it is not part of the official spec
but is supported as legacy from older browsers. It is not
supported by Firefox.

There is a useful reference below, it is by no means perfect
but provides a start to cross-browser viewport stuff:

http://www.quirksmode.org/viewport/compatibility.html

At the bottom of the page is a good start on a browser
compatability test for viewport characteristics . It would
be nice to extend it cover mor functions and provide a
better layout... spare time project?

Have fun, Rob.

What the heck. Below is a modified version of the page.
Interesting is that values for scrollTop, scrollLeft, etc.
are undefined until you actually scroll down or across, so
the "supported y/n" column is not exactly correct. Any
improvements would be greatly appreciated.

Watch for wrapping, I've tried to manually wrap it but I'm
no expert.

Cheers, Rob.

This page was orignally from:

copied and pasted from different browsers to more easily
compile a browser compatability matrix.

It also report user agent (UA) and platform, however
these are not reliable because some UA's allow the user

I have a web page where I want to make sure that an image HTTP request is successfully made before the page unloads. The request is made by setting the image element's SRC property to the desired URL. When I put the SRC property change in either an "onbeforeunload" or "onunload" event handler, the HTTP request is not received by our server as much as 75% of the time. I thought of setting a flag using an "onload" handler for the image...

I have a form to allow the user upload images. The user browse for an image in their computer and click open, th image to be upload is preview on the img tag. The script works fine with IE, but does not work with mozilla Netscap bowsers. Does anyone knows what could be the problem? Does the ONchange function works in Netscape? Or anyone knows a tag that can preview the image file before uploadin it.

Hello folks. Sorry if this seems a bit silly, I have no experience with this type of code. Here is a fading script for an Image Gallery I am looking to fix.
