*
* The function NavCheck returns the value of newBrowser, which initializes false.
* If the instruction getElementById is defined, the browser supports DOM 2+ and
* newBrowser is set to true.
*
* If the browser does not support DOM 2+, a small window opens with the footnote text within it.
*
* The variable myWindow is used by the function replaceText; it is instantiated if and only
* if the browser does not support DOM2+.
*
* The function replaceText(myElement,myText,myColor) replaces the text node within
* myElement with myText, and sets the background color of myElement to myColor.
* It begins by ensuring that this operation can be done, using NavCheck!
*
* The functions showNote(myElement) and hideNote(myElement) change the visibility of the
* document element myElement by resetting the style attribute for that element. These functions
* do nothing if the browser does not support DOM2.
