.ASP is a server side technology and has nothing to do with anything on the client. That said, the idiots (which is what they are for not following W3C standards) either wrote it to MS's proprietary DOM crap, or are using some Active-X / VB script crap which will only work on Windows. The only way to tell what is REALLY going on is to look at the raw HTML and decipher it. Once you find out what the code is doing, you can show the developer what is wrong, and strongly suggest that the code be fixed. If they BOUGHT the tool set from some third party company, then your organization needs to get the vendor to fix it. In either case, it IS broken and your only remedy is for them to fix it.
