First of all there is no Var variable so I don't know what you're
talking about, secondly the problem with the CSS is the actual url style
and nothing else.

Did you actually try the code, or just make the assumption?

Thridly IFrame is a w3c standard, and even that doesn't work. I have
also looked at many other things that we use in IE that are needed for
our application that we can tie down to one application across the
entire organisation, what that means is we have an application that is
fully configurable easy to create and less work for us with our
framework and we can create anything within minutes.

We can not do what we are achieving on any other browser, and would mean
that the functionality that we do end up delivering to our clients is
minimal.

I'll say it again, Firefox doesn't support everything and work the way
you would think it will work, Netscape had the same problem, Mozilla has
had the same problems in the past, and their new creation firefox has
the same problems again.

I know everyone would love to ditch IE, I would too. But I can't it has
been around far too long, has some very nice additions that we do
leverage off to make an intranet application that kicks butt, and makes
us more money than we could ever hope to make if we did it in any other
browser.

My point is simple, Firefox might be good for general browsing, but its
not up to the task to deliver what we want and what we need.

Okay...

  For the first one... I'm assuming that... you got a var in js that is 
holding the new window... if its in the function that calls 
openwindow... try declaring it outside...  since I don't have ur code...

can't really comment on the exact cause..

  For #2... In the CSS spec there is no attribute.. "hand" for cursor.. 
try using "pointer".. I think that was the only problem there.. if wrong

plz correct me

for #3 don't have the screen shot so can't comment.

 From the looks of it.. most of these are issues were IE has gone away 
from the standards.. or you have coded just for one browser.. which in 
my opinion defeats the purpose of having a web app.. anyhow if you were 
to compare browsers on standard compliance.. FireFox will win.. and with

any application.. the closely you follow standards.. the better off you 
are in the long run.. As eventually ev1 comes back to the standards.
