Netscape 7.x and 8.x: No horizontal scrolling

When using the following code, the horizontal scrollbars do not work in Netscape 7.x or 8.x

var obj = new AW.Grid.Extended;
var width = window.document.body.clientWidth - 50;
var height = window.document.body.clientHeight - 200;
obj.setSize(width, height);
var str = new AW.Formats.String;
var num = new AW.Formats.Number;
obj.setCellFormat([num, num, str, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num, num]);
obj.setCellText(myData);
obj.setHeaderText(myColumns);
obj.setRowCount(26);
obj.setColumnCount(21);
obj.setSelectorWidth(28);
obj.setHeaderHeight(20);
obj.setSelectionMode("single-row");
obj.setFixedLeft(3);
document.write(obj);


I did not see this in the list of known bugs. Please advise.

This seems to be a bug as it does not work for the 2.0 grid example on the site either (although it works for 1.0).

Netscape browser currently is NOT supported. The problem with netscape is for some reason they decided to limit width/height style attributes to 9999px which breaks AW scrolling model.

Thank you for your quick reply. Will there be support added later?

I'll try to fix this problem at some point, maybe using 'in' instead of 'px' (so it will scroll max to 9999in).

BTW you can switch rendering engine in Netscape 8 to IE and everything works fine :-)
