CSS in Netscape 6 is buggy?

Pete Ruby, Jean-Bernard Valentaten,
If you show some code considering your problem, someone might be able
to help you.
As far as I could tell, CSS works the same in NN6 and IE5+. Some CSS2
is not implemented yet, but will be in future releases.

Jean-Bernard,
Sorry for the short question... Newbie.
Here's a clip from a page I have:
<html>
<head>
<title>Main Page</title>
<meta NAME="GENERATOR" CONTENT="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<base target="right">
<style type="text/css">
<!--
A:active {color: #0000FF;}
A:visited {color: #806F95;}
A:hover {color: #FF0000;}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0">
<ul>
<li><a href="pulp_paper.htm" target="right">Pulp and
Paper</a></li>
<li><a href="build_struc.htm" target="right"
OnMouseOver="window.status='Interests - Buildings and
Structures'; return true"
OnMouseOut="window.status=''; return true">Buildings and
Structures</a></li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
The first link works in NN6, it changes color on hover. The second
link, with the "OnMouseOver", does not. Both links work in IE 5.5.
Thanx
Well, it seems like it is more likely to be a bug in the onmouseover/-
out-Handler. As soon as it returns true, the CSS is not interpreted
anymore. I tried various things (return void, return null ...) but none
seemed to work.
Guess if you want a hover effect, you'll have to write a function, that
changes the stylesheets.

Very Strange since it does work in IE 5.5... Kind of annoyed, I've
been
looking forward to this. Does anyone know when the next version (6.2
or
6.5) is coming out?
TIA,
Pete
NN6.1 is already downloable as a beta version

Jean-Bernard,
I found the following bug listing on mozilla:
