Label tags and Netscape 4.08

Hello,

A consultant who is working with us to design an accessible form just ran into a
problem that he thinks may be an incompatibility with Netscape 4.08 and label
tags -- has anyone run into anything like this? And if so, how was it handled?

Here are more details: NS 4.08 hangs up when accessing the page he designed.
It has valid HTML 4.01 transitional code. When the label tags are taken out, or
when only one set of label tags are left in, the page works. The page is
generated, so the current plan for a workaround is to check for NS 4.0x and to
generate a page without labels for that case. We will also encourage the folks
at the Univ. that are on this project to upgrade from NS 4.08!

Thanks,
Carol
