I agree, if the whole thing gets split into lots of different browser
specific files, it will potentially stop being a cross-browser API. Being
cross-browser and abstracting site developers from the underlying
cross-browser muck to me is one of the best reasons for using the API. I
don't know if my Makefile idea is workable, it would be a pain to add a
compile stage into the code/test development process. But then again, the
API does mimick Java in many ways already ;-)

On another note, does IE on Solaris and Mac even support VB?
